President Leonel Fernandez has attended mass at Rome's Basilica de San Giovanni Batista de Fiorentini, where a chapel to the Virgen de la Altagracia, protector of the Dominican Republic, was opened in 2007. Yesterday's mass was to give thanks to God for Fernandez's re-election in the 16 May 2008 election. Monsignor Ramon Benito de la Rosa y Carpio, president of the Dominican Episcopate, led the mass that was organized by the Dominican Embassy to the Holy See. Also present were Archbishop Ciprian Cardena Palo and Monsignor Pietro Parolin, deputy secretary for state relations at the Vatican.
