A symbol of the Good Shepherd’s love
Archbishop José H. Gomez | New World of Faith
Right now I’m getting ready to go to Rome. There I will receive my Metropolitan Archbishop’s pallium from the hands of our Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI, in a ceremony to be held at St. Peter’s Basilica on June 29, the Solemnity of St. Peter and St. Paul Apostles.
This is a moment of special grace for me.
I am traveling to Rome with nearly 300 pilgrims from our archdiocese, as well as with my sisters and other family members and friends. I will carry your intentions with me as we spend a week on pilgrimage, praying at the ancient holy sites of our Catholic faith.
