Joyful Priests

At St. Bernard of Clairvaux Catholic Church, Father Gustavo Domenech, left, and Father Gaston Giacinti, both from Argentina, are excited for their countryman, Pope Francis, the first South American pope. (JENNA TETER/The Texas Catholic)

Special to The Texas Catholic

Like so many others around the world, Father Gustavo Domenech and Father Gaston Giacinti were glued to their television sets March 13, watching history unfold at the Vatican.

One of their own had been elevated to the papacy for the first time.

Both are natives of Argentina and never dreamed they would see the day when one of their countrymen would be elevated to the papacy.

See the full story in the March 15 print edition of The Texas Catholic.
