Reuters - Sun Oct 15, 8:17 AM ET Pope Benedict XVI waves to the faithful as he arrives for the canonization ceremony of Italian nun Rosa Venerini, Mexican bishop Rafael Guizar, Italian priest Filippo Smaldone and Indiana nun Theodore Guerin in St. Peter's square at the Vatican, October 15, 2006.

The gospel was chanted first in Latin, then in Greek. The Vatican choir has been studying Greek and chanted the response. Pope Benedict XVI then blessed all assembled with the Greek Book of the Gospels. A beautiful ceremony under a magnificently blue sky!

That was beautiful, wasn't it? I got up at 4AM to watch.
I saw our bishop in the procession!
