The Holy See-Pope: Allocution to new cardinals:



«Tu es Petrus, et super hanc petram aedificabo Ecclesiam meam».
Venerable Brothers,
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
With these words the entrance hymn has led us into the solemn and evocative ritual of the ordinary public Consistory for the creation of new Cardinals, with the placing of the biretta, the handing over of the ring and the assigning of a titular church. They are the efficacious words with which Jesus constituted Peter as the solid foundation of the Church. (News.Va:here)
