From the Lateran: Tomb of Glorious Innocent III




In 1891 Pope Leo XIII had this tomb made for Pope Innocent III in the Lateran Archbasilica.  It is simply wonderful to pray here.  Carved as a statue you can see the crusader indicating the stardard of the cross of Christ.  Study the life of Pope Innocent who was elected Pope at age thirty-seven: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Innocent_III.
