Pope of Little Children

The personal valet of the pope, while holding his red tabarro cape, lifts up a little baby near the entrance of St. Peter's Basilica, in the center aisle.

A tradition, not begun by John Paul II.

Thanks for the pic, Summer!

  2. Yes, but John Paul "the GREAT" did destroy the tradition of the sedia gestatoria.
