New Orleans to Panama: 27th Day

Hello, Catholic Pilgrims. Welcome back to another beautiful day at sea with Mother Cabrini.  One of the biggest hurdles for me to get over with Catholicism was the papacy. Truly, I believed all the misconceptions about the pope. I thought Catholics believed the pope was God, that he was perfect. I didn't get the point of him. I didn't have any clue about the biblical significance of giving the keys of the kingdom to Peter. I was truly ignorant and willfully so.  Mother Cabrini is going to talk a lot about the pope in our readings today. During 1895, Pope Leo XIII was pope and he is generally considered a good pope.  Let's hear her thoughts by turning to page 116.
