Pope Francis captures the imagination!


photo.JPGLooks like the election of our first Pope, Francis I has captured the imagination of the youth! Using his creativity, Sebastian made his very own pope costume. What a great idea for Halloween - an awesome costume, but an evangelization tool as well! Imagine going to school for the Halloween party and parade dressed as Pope Francis - would that be a violation of the separation of Church and State or a moment of opportunity to evangelization about why this pope is so remarkable? Thanks to Amy for sending this to me.

Habemus papem!

How exciting -  Francis I our new pope. All sorts of firsts. First pope from Latin America, first non-European since the 8th century, and first Jesuit pope in hundreds of years. He's humble, and a man of the people. Well see what sort of leader he will be.
