Journal of a Roman Deacon

[God bless us! Blogger actually deigned to publishing something! I wonder how long this will continue?]

If you weren't able to be in Rome for the Holy Father's funeral (and there are a few of us, although, from the television pictures, not many) this series of articles will be not only the next best thing but a fascinating look behind the scenes, too.

The writer is a seminarian and deacon at the Roman Seminary and was able to participate in some of the ceremonies. A very enjoyable read. (And I say that not just because he's from my home town.)
