That’s neat.

Someday I may get to Rome.

MY Dad was an usher for 20 years at the National Shrine In Washington DC. That has a number of small areas where Mass is said.

I asked our retired pastor and he never said a Mass in Latin and seemed to have little interest. It is a shame if we lose it, as it was very solemn and holy.

I bet you could tell a lot of interesting stories about Rome and the church.

I left there about 40 years ago, so a lot of my stories are beginning to fade. My kids went to International schools: the boys to Notre Dame Intl. and my daughter went to Marymount Intl. Hope you get to Rome someday, pal.
