Conclave 2013

This is a significant and historic time in the Church. As I write this blog, the Conclave has begun and the first vote did not elect a Pope. I made the comment with it being dark in Rome if we could see the black smoke come out and lo and behold it came rolling out. Only one vote was scheduled on the first day and four the next however many days. The bottom line is, let us keep the Cardinal-electors in prayer as the Conclave continues and let us look forward to the white smoke announcing that a new Holy Father has been elected. Come Holy Spirit, and guide the Cardinals and the Church as we continue the mission entrusted to us by our Lord!
