Am here at #CMCBaltimore with the @OSVNews team! Lunchtime here but one our first priorities before sharing a meal was to pray for @Pontifex and his quick recovery from his surgery today!
Sharing some Valentines on display @FranciscanMon for this Valentine's Day: While his parents were still living, Brother Simon McKay, OFM, now 86, sent them a card each St. Valentine’s Day (1955-1981). The friars treasure these cards, on display in church lobby at the monastery.
What a beautiful dress! Thank you for sharing @Cindy_Wooden & for your terrific reporting on yet another papal trip for @CatholicNewsSvc
