Rome, August 9, 2013 (Kipa) The brother of a murder victim has received a spontaneous call from Pope Francis. "When I said 'Hello', answered a voice answered me 'Hello Michele, here is Pope Francis," wrote Michele Ferri from the central Italian port town of Pesaro on his Facebook page, as Italian media reported on Friday. Thus, the call was this Wednesday.Ferri wrote a letter to the Pope in the beginning of June, written after the fatal robbery of his brother Andrea, but did not expect a reply. The 51-year-old businessman was shot dead in the attack. The two alleged offenders sit in jail. Ferri did not disclose the content of the conversation with Francis Ferri. "This is a personal thing, which we prefer to keep to ourselves," explained he and his wife. (Kipa / cic / pem)
Well, the contents of the letter may be private but not the existence of the letter and it's subsequent phone call. I wouldn't be surprised to hear of the contents of that phone call either.
