Our Bessing by Pope Francis came in!!!!! We sent in a letter in November (it came in the mail in January and my mom hid it) and our parents got it framed to then give to us at my bridal shower this weekend!!! I love it so much and we are truly blessed!!!

I am SO jealous! And I’m not even Catholic. I kind of adore Pope Francis. That is very very cool. Can any Catholic couple get a Papal Blessing? My brother in law is getting married in a month and he’s Catholic and I’m sitting here thinking it would be really cool get them one as a surprise!

SQUUEEEEEE!!!! And I’m not even a Catholic (although I am married to one). I LOVE Francis so much. I’m like a crazed fan.
Can anyone get one?

That’s *so* cool! I didn’t even think about getting something like that before my wedding. Now I wish I had another excuse to ask for one, lol!

Yes, you have to send in a letter (and a check) then your parish priest has to sign off on it to say you are a Catholic couple and in good standing with the church and they must put the parish seal on it. Then you just send it off!

I am going to Italy on my honeymoon, we are getting to attend the Sposi Novelli mass being said by Pope Francis. Afterwards we get to go to the bronze door at the Vatican to receive rosaries blessed by the Holy Father. I didn’t know you could receive this without going to Rome!

I think different diocese’s do it differently – try contacting your parish or your diocese if you want one.

tjgonzo: Wow, I didn’t know you could get one before you get married! I have the website with instructions on how to request a blessing bookmarked and I was going to do it sometime after our ceremony. Might have to do it while we’re going through Pre-Cana if we don’t have to wait till after the wedding
