ciao from Ischia Italy

Ciao... in Ischia and we just celebrated St. Peter and St. Paul... wow a true festival especially if your name is Peter or Paul!  Saint days are celebrated greater than birthdays in this country!!!
Ischia is a little island off of Naples about the size of Capri with close to 100% of the population being Catholic.  The Eucharist is adored daily, celebrated with parades and flower processions.  Every day is a Sunday here and life is about celebrating our faith.  It is a beautiful community to belong to.  No matter where in the world we travel... we walk into a Catholic church and we belong!  I take a knee in humble gratitude for the foundation and the continuation of our beautiful faith and to the Son that founded it!  May Today be filled with Peace!  Ciao...
