CONCLAVE ;) : Dennis Rodman arrives in St Peter's Square
Dennis Rodman arrives in St Peter's Square today. Photograph: Chris Helgren/Reuters US basketball player Dennis Rodman, fresh from his diplomatic triumph in North Korea (where he managed to upset Psy, see below, but never mind), has now arrived in St Peter's Square, apparently to promote the chances of Ghana's Peter Turkson and, either way, meet the new pope. "I want to be anywhere in the world that I'm needed," he said.
I am a consecrated Christian solitary brother, observant of the Rule of St. Albert (CCC 920-921). I serve the body of Christ in fraternal community with the Order of Preachers (Rom 11:17).
Please pray for us in our call and mission to serve God and His church. / The monks here depicted are of the eremitic Order of St. Jerome (Hieronymites) to whom I was introduced in Lisbon, Portugal through the 'Mosteiro dos Jeronimos' world heritage site.
The blog title page features an image of the Carmelite Martyrs of Compiègne who gave their lives for the peace of God's people during the French Revolution's reign of terror.
Holy Carmelite Saints & Martyrs please pray for us +
