| | Pope St. Gregory the Great |
 | | Gregory gave much of his time to lecturing on the Holy Scriptures and is recorded to have expounded to his monks the Heptateuch, Books of Kings, the Prophets, the Book of Proverbs, and the Canticle of V+Canticles. |  | | Gregory, while always upholding the spiritual jurisdiction of the bishop, was firm in support of the monks against any illegal aggression. |  | | Gregory appointed a vicar, usually the metropolitan of the province, who exercised a general supervision over the whole church. |

| | Pope Gregory XV: Proceedings of the Conclave that led to his election. |
 | | Ludovisi, who became Gregory XV, reigned for two and a half years and his short pontificate is one of the most important in the history of the Church of Rome. |  | | Historians disagree as to the respective shares taken by the uncle and the nephew in the conduct of affairs, some ascribing all the initiative to Gregory, while others assert that he was a mere cypher, leaving the entire burden of government to Ludovisi. |  | | But there was also important work to be done nearer home, and as the Jesuits were not sufficiently numerous to undertake it unaided, other orders such as the Dominicans, the Franciscans and the Augustines were enrolled as members of "The Society for the Propagation of the Faith". |

 | | The Pope announced that, in honour of his sainted predecessor, two new books were to be added to the Bible, to form the 'Even Newer Testament'. |  | | He also spoke of the forthcoming Pope, who God has said is to be called Peter II, in a break with Catholic tradition: and that henceforth Papal selection will be by purely divine means, without the need for Cardinals to cast their votes. |  | | No sooner had the Pope finished his speech than, according to the tens of thousands of worshippers present, he ascended to Heaven in the hands of a bevy of multi-hued shimmering angels. |

 | | Today is the 378th anniversary of the election of Pope Gregory XV, the 234th successor of Peter who is best known for promulgating and perpetuating the missionary efforts of the Church through his official establishment of the Pontifical Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith or "Propaganda Fide". |  | | Considering Hussein's Muslim roots, the Pope might have dispatched Cardinal Francis Arinze as well since he is President of the Commission for Religious Relations with Muslims, but the immediate funeral the day after his death precluded the Pontiff from making this a reality. |  | | In an official statement issued on February 7, the Holy See said that the Pope "joined in the sorrow of that noble nation," and pointed to "the many contacts" between King Hussein and Pope John Paul II. |

 | | Pope John Paul II believes that the text refers to the failed assassination attempt by Mehmet Ali Agca on May 13, 1981, against him. |  | | Since the opinion of many Catholic theologians is that a heretical Pope would cease to be Catholic and therefore cease to be Pope, sedevacantists believe the current Bishops of Rome are not actually popes. |  | | He notes that this was the feast day of Our Lady of Fatima, that he'd kept himself conscious on the ride to the hospital by concentrating on her, and had indicated repeatedly that he believes that the Virgin Mary spared him from death. |
