Someone at work told me they read in one of the news magazines that Pope John Paul was quoted as saying he would be the last Pope. The Pope that followed would be the antichrist. I have heard that it has been a message from Our Lady that he would be the last Pope. My friends want to know and don't understand why we worship Mary and place her as high as God. No one can come to the Father except through me.
People think that only humans can be Saints.
During Lent we do not eat meat on Fridays. Some of us have arthritis, etc. Many of the church's decorative, ornamental pieces are beautiful. There was a gorgeous display of jeweled monstrances at the New Orleans museum of Art. I have seen some very disturbing sights.
