Santuario di Nostra Signora della Rosa

Mass this morning was molto bene – it was really interesting attending a mass in a foreign language. The readings and homily were a bit hard, as I don’t know enough Italian to have any real idea of the substance of them. But Italian is a lovely language to listen to, and the priest had a mellifluous voice, so it was still very pleasant. And even though I couldn’t do my part of the call and response, I always knew where we were (profession of faith, Lord’s prayer, etc). A morning well spent, indeed 🙂

Here are some links. The first is to a wikipedia page about the church. The page is in Italian – I looked for but couldn’t find an English version. However, if you open it in Chrome, it will ask if you want to translate the page. And the next is to some pics of our day in Camogli, a small fishing village about a half hour bus ride from here.
