                              I’ll be here, for sure, but I’ll also be hanging out here. Pray for me! Update: To clear up any confusion, the actual blogging hasn’t started yet beyond the reporters’ answering questions. Our first pre-visit posts will go up on…

..it seems as if people are most interested in learning more about Bishop-to-be Taylor of Little Rock than any of the others appointed today. Makes sense. Two years without a bishop is a long time! Rocco has more info about and statements from the bishops. Just stroll over there and take a look.

Pope2008 had a post yesterday about what’s happening at CUA in anticipation. Joanna Berry, a student from Catholic University of America recently contacted me to share the palpable excitement and hope on campus in…
