    May. 03 (CWNews.com) - Pope Benedict XVI (bio - news) has sent his
    condolences, and assurance of his prayers, to the families of victims
    of an airplane crash on the Black Sea.

    All 113 people traveling aboard an Armenian plane were presumed dead
    after a flight disappeared over the sea on a flight from Yerevan,
    the Armenian capital, to the resort town of Sotchi.

    Writing on behalf of the Pope, Cardinal Angelo Sodano (bio - news),
    the Vatican Secretary of State, sent a message of sympathy by telegram
    to Archbishop Claudio Gugerotti, the apostolic nuncio in Armenia. The
    message commended the crash victims to "the mercy of the Lord, asking
    Him to welcome them into his kingdom of peace."
