Portraits of Pope Benedict XVI (L) and Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop, Australia's only Saint, hang on a wall of the St Mary's Catholic Church before being taken down after a service in the New South Wales town of Mudgee, located 250 km (155 miles) west of Sydney, March 1, 2013. Pope Benedict XVI ended his difficult reign on February 28 pledging unconditional obedience to whoever succeeds him to guide the Roman Catholic Church at one of the most crisis-ridden periods in its 2,000-year history.
