Mrs. G's Website of the Week March 11-15, 2013
This week marks an incredibly important event for Catholics around the world -- The Papal Conclave has entered the Sistene Chapel in the Vatican City to conduct the election and appointment of the Pope. The Pope serves both as the Bishop of Rome and the spiritual leader of Catholics around the world. Click on the Electing a Pope button below for an interactive tutorial that explains the centuries-old rituals and traditions associated with papal elections.
During this time, all eyes are on the Vatican City and Rome, Italy. What do you know about the country called Vatican City? What do you know about St. Peter's Basilica and the famous Sistine Chapel? What do you know about the ancient city of Rome? Share your Internet finds with me and others in our class as we use this opportunity to expand our knowledge about Rome, Vatican City, St. Peter's Basilica, and the Sistine Chapel.
