Fr. Jonathan's Canon Law Trip to Rome

At the beginning of March, I was blessed to join a group from the School of Canon Law at the Catholic University of America on a trip to Rome. We were able to visit about 14 congregations and dicasteries of the Roman Curia (the groups which lead and serve the Holy See and the Church throughout the world). We also offered Mass in all four of the Major Papal Basilicas of Rome: St. John Lateran, St. Paul Outside the Walls, St. Mary Major, and St. Peter's. We were able to meet with several bishops and cardinals. Finally, to top it all off, our last meeting of the week in Rome was a planned-at-the-last-minute, private audience with our Holy Father, Pope Francis. I hope you enjoy the pictures of this trip and thank you for your prayers!

 To Jesus through Mary,
Fr. Jonathan
