Easter Mass |
HAPPY EASTER!
After experiencing the crowds outside of security and
hustling our way into the square, we stood for mass, praying for no rain. The sun came out and Mass was
beautiful! Pope Francis even
processed right by us on his pope mobile after Mass. We left once it was done and weaved our way back to Bernardi
for an Easter Brunch.

Afterwards,
we celebrated by strolling around Rome, buying gifts for family members and
eating the long-awaited Gelato. We
grabbed our last dinner together at an authentic Italian underground place
called, “Il Ciociaro.” We had a
delicious meal and wonderful conversation. My parents walked me back to Bernardi to say goodbye. It was harder to leave them than I
thought.
Both Bernardians (who
were traveling on spring break) and my family was “leaving” me at the same time
so I felt like I was losing two families at once!
But I didn’t have much time to feel sad, because I needed to
get prepared for my next adventure in the morning: Medjugorje.
