At 2:27 a.m. (5/1/2011) I saw groups of people walking around with crosses and torches. I immediately thought, this is for the Pope. Since a week ago photos of Pope Paul the II went up all over the place, and ever since, Rome has been humming about this Beatification business. (Beatification: A ceremony for being one miracle away from Sainthood.) Yet, when I asked who I was with what was going on he said, "They're going to the sancutuary." .. When I asked other questions, I learned that believers gather every (every) Saturday night during the summer at the center of Rome to march (An hour walk.) to the Santuario del Divino Amore (The Sancutuary of Divine Love) as a sign of devotion to Jesus.
