Roof of Pontifical North American Seminary in Rome
Visitors are welcomed to enjoy the majestic view from the roof.
They say Frank Cardinal Spellman had these words painted here just over fifty years ago.
Would be nice to see these wires removed.
What is wrong with this Picture?
Pontifical Academy of Ecclesiastics, Rome.
The palazzo dell'accademia ecclesiastica is a lovely and historical palace, save for this renovated chapel.
Laughable that costly and needless renovations such as this have been advertised to the faithful as liturgical "renewal."

Accademia Vivarivm Novvm: the Ultimate Latin School Now in Rome
The inauguration of the new location in Rome will be tomorrow, November 25, at three o'clock.
Accademia Vivarium Novum
Via Corrado Barbagallo, 20 (Residenza Aurelia)
00166 Roma
See here: http://www.vivariumnovum.it/
The new Rome location is thanks to the Legionaries of Christ.
It's also a bit of a distance from downtown Rome (it's west of the city just off Via Aurelia): from the metro stop Cornelia take bus 246 until you arrive at Malagrotta and then take line 023 and get off at Via Corrado Barbagallo (Residenza Aurelia).
Motto: Profusum Sapientiae Semen Iustitiae Alere Flamma.

Meet Madre Maria Vincenza Minet: A Modern Saint
Dressed in white is one of our favorites, Mother Vincenza. Mother is the foundress of the Congregazione Suore Ancelle della Visitazione. Here she is pictured with Sister Margherita Marchione, an American sister of the Maestre Pie Filippini.
Today Mother Vincenza is 81. She has led a storied life and her new religious order has grown quickly and enjoyed many spiritual blessings.
Mother was one of the sisters who took care of His Eminence Eugene Card. Tisserant at the end of his earthly journey. In fact, she was there praying with him as he passed on - and she considers it a grace to have taken care of him in his last days and shares that his last words were the Ave Maria, prayed in French, just before his last breath.
Just today it was a great honor to pray with Mother, in Latin, on the Via Aurelia north of Rome. To pray the Ave Maria with her!
Saints among us.
