“My heart is in love,” he said, “even though I’ve never had the opportunity to break the promises I made.”
“I want to see if I can live this love without suppressing it or pushing it away.” According to the declaration, Ceccobelli, who has been the priest of the small town of 3,550 people for six years, received the blessing of his superior, Bishop Gualtiero Sigismondi, who was present at the priest’s side when he addressed the parish.
