    A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY!

    On July 1, 1997, six and a half million FREE people of Hong Kong were sold into slavery. The butchers of Tiananmen have turned China into a vast concentration camp, where public celebration of the Roman Catholic Mass is a criminal offense, punishable by many years of prison. Thousands of Chinese are sentenced to death and executed every year, after the forcible removal of their vital organs, which are sold for hard currency in the lucrative human organs market.
    There are over 250,000 Catholics in Hong Kong; the Catholic religious orders run the school system there. Pray for the martyred Christians of China, for the Christians of Hong Kong and for their deliverance from Communist slavery! --- Michael Olteanu, M.S.

    Stanze di Raffaello
    Pope Julius II Della Rovere commissioned 25 year old Raphael Sanzio in 1508 to paint the frescos in his four room apartment on the top floor. Three of the rooms were of modest dimensions, while the fourth one was considerably larger; with the completion of the work, the rooms became known as "The Raphael Stanze"

    They comprise the Stanza della Segnatura, the Stanza of Heliodorus, the Stanza of the Borgo Fire and the Sala of Constantine.

    The 52 scenes on the ceilings of the loggia are still popularly referred as "The Raphael Bible".
