Waiting for Francis in Washington

Deacon Greg Kandra - published on 09/23/15

FOB (Friend of the Bench) Deacon Clayton Nickel is assigned to St. Matthew’s Cathedral in Washington, DC, and he sent along these snapshots this morning. This is what awaits Pope Francis later today. After spending a few moments in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament, he’ll be presiding at Midday Prayer.

Great shots, Clayton—thank you!
