Mexico City, Mexico, Jan 26, 2005 / 22:00 pm
This week at the parish of St. Augustine in Tlalpan, Mexico, the first ever Canon Law Department of the Pontifical University of Mexico was inaugurated.
The event was attended by the Prefect of the Congregation for Catholic Education, Cardinal Zenon Grocholewski and the Archbishop of Mexico, Cardinal Norberto Rivera.
During the celebration of Mass, Cardinal Rivera said that with the establishing of the department “the one hundred year-old academic tradition of the Catholic Church in Mexico has been fully restored.”
The Cardinal prayed to God for “light to overcome difficulties and to be faithful to the commitment this new challenge represents.”
