    Follow-up: Kidnapped Catholic priests freed in Iraq

    Pope Benedict prayed for their release last Sunday.

    And this Sunday, Deo gratias, they have been freed:

    Two Catholic priests kidnapped in Iraq have been freed and are in good health, a cleric at the residence of Cardinal Emmanuel III Delly in Baghdad said on Sunday."I talked to the hostages. They are well.

    They say they were treated like guests," said the cleric, who asked not to be identified.

    He said the priests were celebrating their release with a service at a church in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, where they were taken hostage amid reports they were being held for a $1 million ransom.

    A Vatican spokesman confirmed their release.

    ... and in the Vatican, much rejoicing.
