Catania, Sicily. October, 2015


At every corner in each Sicilian neighborhood, you're likely to come across some private expression of devotion like this. (Much nicer than the plaster madonnas that decorate lawns in neigborhoods near my New England home.) And while we're revering the Blessed Virgin, this little shrine might serve as a reminder that today is the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, a holy day of obligation. Been to Mass yet?
