Waiting to See a Bit of Madre Laura

Waiting to see a bit of Madre Laura in the Cathedral of Bogotá.
Madre Laura, the Colombian nun who is on her way to sainthood, visited Bogotá today - or at least a tiny bit of her did. Catholic Church officials put a fragment of one of her ribs on display in the Cathedral de Bogotá. The somewhat grotesque spectacle was reminiscent of the display of a vial of Pope John Paul's blood in the cathedral not long ago.
