Some Interesting Websites

I personally enjoy learning about some of the lesser known facts and traditions of the Roman Catholic Church. Below are a few websites that I have found in my searching the internet that include some of these interesting tidbits. If you share a similar interest, check them out!

Dappled Photos: This site includes a plethora of photos and information about the Roman clergy's vestments. Here is one example of their great photos:

Richard Cardinal Cushing, Archbishop of Boston 1944-1970

Catholic Hierarchy: On this site, you can trace the episcopal lineage of any bishop. Type in your bishop's name and see who ordained him! It also has other information, such as info about dioceses.

Going right along with that is the site, Apostolic Succession in the Roman Catholic Church. On the homepage of this site, there is an explanation of why most episcopal lineages trace back to one man, Scipione Cardinal Rebiba.

So if you have some spare time, and are interested, check out these sites. They're fun, informative, and might even inspire you to learn more about your Church!
