The wedding we attended was in St. Joseph's Cathedral in Wheeling, W.Va.
Once my son determined we wouldn't be leaving for some time, he settled in to look at the ornate statues and colorful frescoes. I thought he seemed most impressed by the elaborately painted ceiling and 140-foot high dome.
But then he leaned over to his Daddy and I heard him ask, "Daddy, why are there Hebrew letters on the ceiling?"
Sure enough, up with some angels in a blue sky were the gilded Hebrew letters: yud, hey, vav, hey.
