Christus natus est: the spot where He was born...

Here I am in Bethlehem today feeling a little like Indiana Jones! I never would have imagined, but this door is the main entrance to the Church of the Nativity of Our Lord! In other words, straight through this door is the old cave where our Blessed Lord was born! Little did Dr. Jones know, but the visit to the grotto proved to be one of the most spiritual moments of my life...

Jones di dottore,
Dove la sua frusta e la pistola รจ?

L'amore, il Suo Thomas di Fratello

I was feeling like the elder Jones as I never had the prowess or time for such trifles as the whip and pistol...instead I carry a blessed rosary and a glass vile of holy water!
