(Vatican Radio) Holy Mass was celebrated on Tuesday in
the Vatican Grottoes for the 16 Hungarian victims of a bus crash, which
occurred last Friday near Verona, Italy.
The secondary school students were returning to Budapest
from a skiing trip in France when their bus crashed into a highway overpass and burst
into flames.
The suffrage Mass was presided over by Bishop Ferenc
Cserháti in the Magna Domina Hungarorum Chapel in the Grottoes under St.
Peter’s Basilica.
Among those present at the Mass for the victims and their
families were the Hungary's Ambassadors to the Holy See and Italy, along with
the Embassies’ staff.
In his homily, Bishop Cserháti said, “As we cry, we must not
forget that these departed young people are written on the palm of God’s hand,
because they are His creatures, and God desires not death but life.”
