PEORIA - It's out with the old and in
with the new at Notre Dame High School in Peoria.
Although a new Pope has not been
chosen yet, the Catholic school is preparing for a new leader.
Father Adam Stimpson said his students
are spending some time learning the ins and outs of the Papal election.
He said it's a very exciting time for
the Catholic faith. "This has been really a fun experience being a priest for
the first time and to work with young people as they experience this for the
first time and really being able to walk with them as a father figure through
the excitement of electing a new pope."
Father Stimpson said many students
were hoping for white smoke Tuesday. He said another thing they're hoping for is
an American Pope.
