A Real Army of Devotion. . .
I am finding more and more people out there devoted to Pope John Paul I - including permanent deacon Bob Yerhot, who actually had the privilege of serving his inaugural Mass and who has named him as patron saint of his own blog, Catholic Faith and Reflections.
I hope to learn some more about this story soon. But do check out the reflections on his blog and the translations of the Pope’s writings he has posted there.
Update: June 16
Bob has started writing his memories of Papa Luciani in Rome almost 32 years ago. Here’s the link to Part One and I will put up links to the rest as well. Thanks, Bob!

Thank you so much for the work you are doing to help all of us come to a greater appreciation of Papa Luciani. I have begun to write of my experience of him on my blog. Whereas I can never claim to have known him personally, I have felt spiritually close to him since I served his Mass and approached him closely that day, a day in which he looked directly at me and smiled, giving me a blessing.
Papa Luciani,pray for us.
