Pope + US = AMAZING!!!
Well, the big man himself landed in Washington yesterday. As I live in OH, I was not able to see it in person. However, EWTN has a great program tracking the Holy Father.
This, I think, is what America really needs. If I recall correctly, this is the pope of the "New Springtime". If anyone can liven the hearts of the faithful, I believe it is this man. For some reason, the popes tend to know *exactly* what to say at any given time. Thus, I have complete confidence in the Holy Father in his ability to speak the spark that will ignite the "sleeping giant" of the faith of American Catholics. And when that happens...devil watch out!

Pope? Yes!

We didn't see him nor do I think it is likely. But Timothy (my older brother, I don't know if you remember him) spent a semester in Rome and saw the pope. He came back claiming that he winked at him with both eyes.
If people don't respond to the wake-up call, it unfortunately wouldn't be the first time the Pope has been ignored by American Catholics even when he's talked on their soil. However, I'd say for his part he's done a great job!
