John Paul II |

|

So far in Rome I have had three opportunities to see the Holy Father, the first was at a General Papal Audience which he holds every Wednesday. The second was at the canonization of Jose Marie Escriva in September. The final time was at the Pontifical University student mass in October. He is an amazing man who has had a great impact on the world. What an experience to see him and be within 15 feet of the man, not to mention being present at a canonization of a Saint!!! |
