Here it is, Easter Sunday in Rome. The weather last night was miserable. We left St. Peter's Basilica in the pouring rain and had thunderstorms all night. This morning was a glorious day. The sun was shone brightly and it as nice and warm. It feels like Spring and Easter Sunday.
I went to the Venerable English College for Mass this morning. I just needed to hear the English language. I love the sound of Italian, but I only catch a word or two now and then. It was a nice liturgy and the homily was very good.
I am sharing some photos I found online from last night...I wasn't able to take photos because I was distributing the Eucharist at the Vigil. However, from the Offertory until the Our Father I was situated on the side of the altar so that my ciborium of hosts could be consecrated. I was within feet of the Pope...it was great!
You found some nice pictures! So glad Easter was such a glorious spring day! The second to the last picture - is that where you said in your writeup that you attended Mass? It's a beautiful place!
