Apostolic nuncio speaks in Madison
Pope's representative to United Nations discusses moral authority




Editor's note: For audio and visual recordings of Archbishop Celestino Migliore's entire talk, go to www.madisondiocese.org

MADISON -- In a world rendered often unstable and tense, "people turn to moral authority seeking clarity and guidance."

That's what Archbishop Celestino Migliore, apostolic nuncio and permanent observer of the Holy See to the United Nations, told those attending his May 12 talk at the Overture Center in Madison.

About Archbishop Migliore

After graduating from the Pontifical Academy for Ecclesiastical Diplomacy in 1980, Archbishop Celestino Migliore joined the Holy See's diplomatic service. He has been stationed in Angola, the United States, Egypt, Poland, France, and the Vatican. He has represented the Holy See at numerous conference, symposia, and panels around the world. Pope John Paul II named him apostolic nuncio and permanent observer to the United Nations in 2002, the personal representative of the Holy Father at the U.N.

Archbishop Migliore's address at the Overture Center in Madison was part of the Diocese of Madison's St. Thérèse of Lisieux Lecture Series.Two sources of that moral authority are the Catholic Church and the United Nations. Archbishop Migliore said that Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon invited Pope Benedict XVI to speak at the U.N. recently because the pope represents a moral authority.   Full story ...
