Today's funny incident:
While atteding Mass @ St Peter's bascillica, we went up to receive
Communion. For some some reason the usher sommoned me (& only me) to
come to the center aisle to receive. Beimg God's humble servant I
hesitated. He then motioned to me again and I obeyed. While I was
humbled by this honor, I know that the center line just finished first
and the usher was trying to finish the communion distribution as fast
as possible. But hey, it's my blog and I can write what ever I want.
Today' stupid incident:
Let's just say there is a difference between St Peter's Musem and the
Vatican museum. We saw St Peter's Musem.
All in all - a great day!
Ken, Cathy & Erin
Sounds like you're having a wonderul time. Erin must be having fun being the guide. Glad you saw the pope. BTW..Try spelling BASILICA like this. See if you like that better. :)
ReplyDeleteTell me, in Rome do they say, "The mass is ended, go in peace," BEFORE it's actually over, just to temp the antsy-pants to make a dash for the door?
