King Juan Carlos of Spain: Baptized by Ven. Pius XII in Rome

Born in the posh Parioli section of Rome, he was baptized in the the private chapel of the Palazzo Malta on the Via dei Condotti in January of 1938 by Cardinal Pacelli. A year later, Pacelli was pope. In 1975, Juan Carlos was king; and he remains king even today. The grace of baptism in this world is always at work for grace, conversion, holiness and catholicity.

  1. Muchas gracias por su blog. Nuestro Rey Juan Carlos I fue proclamado Rey de España en 1975, y no en 1775.
    Un abrazo muy fuerte y a seguir deleitándonos con su trabajo.
    Muchas Gracias.
