I know it seems like just yesterday. I’ve bought the Weigel book on John Paul II and look forward to learning more about this extraordinary man.

I thought the same thing. Whenever I say the rosary, and I get to the first Our Father bead which is praying for the pope’s intentions, I still smile to realize we do have a new pope!
