The Holy Father Departs Washington, DC



I know that everyone in the crowd felt blessed to see and be greeted by the Holy Father as he bid farewell to Washington, DC. As someone who was confirmed buring Benedict XVI's pontificate, it was certainly a special moment for me, as I have come to appreciate the pope as a sign and symbol of our Heavenly Father and as the consecrated successor of St. Peter.
