Vox pained-us

Firstly, please say a prayer through the intercession of Saint Blaise for Father T who has found himself afflicted with a case of bronchitis, and for Father McD who is not feeling the best, either. Gratias.

Secondly, I thought that I might share a story that I heard at our meeting on Saturday for 2008. Apparently, Pope St Pius X wasn't too fond of the English language, nor receiving audiences, and was a little suspicious of Americans! One day, some Anglophones did gain an 'audience', and beseeched the Holy Father to say something in English. He did. "Goodbye!"
