Party on the Pope’s Lanai
VATICAN BASILICA PATIO DEDICATED TO GREGORY ILLUMINATOR
VATICAN CITY, 22 FEB 2008 (VIS) - At noon, during a brief ceremony attended by His Beatitude Nerses Bedros XIX, Patriarch of Cilicia of the Armenian Catholics, and a group of prelates of the Armenian Catholic Church, the Pope dedicated the north patio of the Vatican Basilica to St. Gregory the Illuminator.
Afterward they had a barbecue, cracked some brews, and kicked back to some Jimmy Buffett. Oh wait, it’s not that kind of patio?

Dear Dom,
Only if no meat was used at the barbecue. This is Lent, afterall
Of course, they would have thrown some shrimp on the barbie. Perhaps Cardinal Pell was there.
And, Tom, not the the first time you’ve done that here. 
As a Catholic who is Armenian (not an Armenian Catholic), I’d like to thank you for pointing this story out. Makes me feel like all the mixed blood in me can get along (I’m Armenian, Italian, Irish, English, and a tiny bit of Scottish).
