A young couple were regular visitors to the Milan church and would spend an hour sitting attentively in front of the Madonna before silently departing. Closer examination revealed the visitors were using the electricity socket used to light up the Madonna to charge their mobile phone. The parish priest has said there is no question of the pair being barred entry in future. “They come here because they don’t have a house. The church is their house and letting them charge their mobile phone is a bit like giving them a glass of water.”
