I've been watching off and on The Kennedies on PBS this week. Today Spirit Daily has an interesting account traced back to a nun who claims that Kennedy went to confession and Mass on the morning of the day he was assasinated. Seems difficult to confirm but Michael Brown does an interesting job of trying to track down the truth. At the end of his piece he provides an interesting anecdote from St. Padre Pio.
Spirit Daily - Daily spiritual news from around the world:
"In Italy, the famous mystic Padre Pio, since canonized, was said to have broken down and wept at news of the assassination. When a fellow priest, Padre Aurelio, equally distressed, asked him to pray for the dead president's salvation, Padre Pio reportedly replied: 'It's not necessary. He's already in paradise.'"
