and thank God for that. I am pleased that he arrived safely and disappointed that, due to work commitments, I will not be able to make it to DC or NYC to see him. I am always impressed by how a Papal visit always seem to touch something spiritual within the hearts of many Americans. Even for a brief moment, people are reminded of the world beyond the secular, temporary, and transient.
I would have also loved to have heard Kathleen Battle sing the Our Father....actually I would have preferred Natalie Dessay but, no doubt the Holy Father, an avid fan of classical music, will enjoy the piece.
