I had been coming to the Church for years, (God works in amazing ways-I even had a picture I took 6 years ago that had statues of St. Francis and St. Brendan in it and I started painting it 3 years ago...) but have just in the last year come to the Faith from a Fundamental Devout Baptist background. Wow, what a change...

Greetings, Ann!

Last month I visited St. Matthew Cathedral at Washington, DC in three days.

April 8: the memorial mass for Pope John Paul II.
April 9: the wedding of my relative.
April 10: Sunday mass in Latin.

Pax et Bonum

St. Matthew's is so beautiful. But the Shrine of the Immaculate conception makes me want to drop to my knees. the Blessed Sacrement makes me weep.
