017 – Ss. Cosma e Damiano

Our Chaplin and my good friend Fr. John Lado said the station mass last Thursday, so naturally I had to pull up and support. Mass was at Ss. Cosma e Damiano located right next to the Roman Forum. After mass we were able to venerate the remains of these great two saints. The mosaic looks modern, but it dates back to the 6th century. A cool feature of the mosaic is Christ’s eyes. They are pointing in the direction of the door, so when you enter it he is looking right at you.
