I'm still doing a lot of thinking about Pope Benedict. I tend to think he has apologized too much, but I'm not in his position, and I'm not worried about people being killed for something I have said.
The other day however the phrase Servus Servorum Dei popped into my head. I hadn't thought of it in a long time, but it is by far my favorite of the papal titles.
Servant of the Servants of God. What a beautiful title for the Pope. I had actually never heard it before last year or the year before. Our Pastor at the time (who has now passed away sadly) gave a homily and explained the title. Like I mentioned I had never heard it before, but the meaning really struck me.
I may make a Pope Benedict banner or picture with that title on it. We'll have to see.

About Me
- catholicandgop
- Catholic and politically conservative, I graduated with a BA in History (concentration in American) and Political Science. I'm between two parishes; one in Wisconsin that is fairly traditional, and one in Illinois that is fairly liberal. I teach CCD. I work in the food service industry, which basically means I'm working in fast food until I find a better job. I'd like to work for the church somehow. Right now I'm working on getting my teaching certification, although I'm unsure thats the correct path for me. This blog is as random as I am. I hope you enjoy.
