Like other pilgrims visiting the Vatican this week, St. Louisan Lindsey Joyce has had a front-row view to a historical moment for the Church.
Last year, Joyce, 29, signed up to participate in a pilgrimage with Lino Rulli, who hosts The Catholic Guy radio show on Sirius xm satellite radio. The parishioner at St. Joseph in Cottleville, who works as an operating room nurse at Mercy Hospital St. Louis, was notified in early December that she had a slot on the pilgrimage — months before Pope Benedict XVI announced his retirement. She left for Rome March 8.
