CWN Editor's Note: Sister Raffaella Petrini has been named by Pope Francis to be the secretary-general of the Vatican governorate: the body that administers the affairs of the Vatican city-state. She is the first woman to rise to the second-ranking post in the governorate, succeeding Bishop Fernando Vergez Alzaga, who was promoted to become the president of the body last month.
