Pray The Rosary With Monsignor Guido Marini

Monsignor Guido Marini, the Master of Pontifical Liturgical Celebrations at the Vatican under Pope Benedict XVI and the current one prayed the rosary with the College of Cardinals before the recent conclave that propelled Jorge Bergolio to the very top of the Catholic Church.  See the video at http://www.catholictv.com/Cardinals-Prayer-Service.aspx

I like the Monsignor.  He has a kind smile [1] but he is also very serious about presenting the liturgy the way that he believes that it ought to be presented, with respect, dignity and solemnity.  He is so attentive, so obedient, so careful in looking after the successor of Peter without judgment.  What a saint!

I hope that this pope will leave his post quickly by resigning or dying or as a result of any one of many natural causes so that Monsignor Guido Marini to Cardinal could be the next pope [2].

[2] Perhaps one of the changes that would take place in the Catholic Church would be to find the holiest among men to be the successor of Peter, whether or not he is a Cardinal, a Monsignor, a monk or a fisherman.
