I would take it to a priest I trusted to be blessed, js
Ok. And?
Don’t know yet, and that is why it is interesting.
If I were Milei, I’d have it checked for microphones.
I read yesterday that Milei was converting to Judaism … Maybe a gift from this Pope was what pushed him over the edge?

Maybe he’ll join “Jews for Jesus.”

My comment was more directed at the CNA reporting that the Pope gave Melei a Rosary as even being news worthy. You would expect any Pope would do that. Let’s hope now that Melei prays it.
“You would expect any Pope would do that.”
I don’t think Francis or any other pope has typically given a rosary to every newly elected leader. Thus Francis’ gifting a rosary to Milei is considered newsworthy.
John- ???
Can bet he didn’t give one to former President Trump. To be fair PF did receive Trump, Melania and Ivanka in a private audience.
