Father Jaki in Rome

Father Jaki visited Rome last week and gave many wonderful lectures, including a most lively one at the North American College (above). He is at present ill, and I request prayers for his full recovery.

Subiaco: Sacro Speco, Laetare Sunday

Subiaco at long last: Monastery of Santa Scholastica

Always take a monk with you when visiting a monastery for the first time, especially one known to all the residents! Thank you, Father Gregory!

Albano

A rare afternoon outside of Rome, to Lake Albano. In the distance is Castel Gandolfo with its Observatory, and the shining silver strip on the far horizon is the Tyrrhenian.
