Another busy day learning how to be a bishop. I truly enjoyed the masses at Gorman and St. Gregory. I've always loved the kids and they definitely make me feel loved in return.
One cute moment to share.............I was talking to the St. Gregory students about the fuchsia zuchetto a bishop wears and explaining that Cardinals wear a red zuchetto and the Pope wears a white one. As kids often do one little guy raised his hand and said, "I don't like the cardinals", for a brief moment I was surprised but then I realized and said to him, "oh you mean the baseball team" and he noded yes.
I was relieved to clarify that little misunderstanding. I would hate to think one of our third graders had a grudge against the Pope's College!!!!
Thanks for all your great support. I'll try to keep sharing the little stories as they occur.
Your newspaper is in need of an official "bishop pic." Might we have permission to use this one (will need photog credit), or will there be the traditional bishop in cassock by baptismal font shot?
ReplyDeleteBet you never thought you'd have your very own newspaper, huh? ;)
