Quo Vadis, Domine?

Today is the 4th Sunday of Easter in the Extraordinary Form. The gospel today is from John, where St Peter asks Christ, 'Quo vadis, Domine?', 'Where are you going, O Lord?'. This is where the first Holy Father promised Christ to go where ever He went, even unto death, and Christ foretold that St Peter would deny Him three times. According to Holy Tradition, St Peter asks Christ this same question again, where upon fleeing Rome, he meets Christ, carrying his cross toward the Eternal City.

It is one of my favourite stories, and I have written a reflection about it earlier in the academic year.
