Last weekend, we celebrated All Souls’ Day in our liturgies. This weekend, we have another special feast day that we are celebrating in our liturgies with the feast of the Dedication of the St John Lateran Basilica in Rome. During the three times I visited Rome as a priest, I have visited the Lateran Basilica. One of those times, when I visited Rome with the liturgical leadership program with the University of Notre Dame, I was the main celebrant of the Mass at the Baptistry at the Lateran Basilica, which was the main place where the citizens of Rome were baptized into the Catholic faith. We celebrate our ties to the Pope and the city of Rome, to the universal Catholic Church, and to our Church’s historical development. Blessings to all of you - Father Lincoln.
