They are also the knots of anguish and despair of separated couples, the dissolution of the family, the knots of a drug addict son or daughter, sick or separated from home or God, knots of alcoholism, the practice of abortion, depression, unemployment, fear, solitude\u2026Ah, the knots of our life! How they suffocate the soul, beat us down and betray the heart\u2019s joy and separate us from God.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In <a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/2015\/09\/15\/440477075\/art-installation-to-welcome-pope-francis-to-philadelphia\">an interview with NPR<\/a>, the self-described &#8220;public artist&#8221; Saliman described her approach to the painting:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>What if we reinterpret the painting? How can we make this meaningful? We&#8217;re including all face, all ethnicities.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Thus, the Knotted Grotto was born. \u00a0Saliman traveled around those who might be considered the &#8220;least&#8221; among us: the homeless, as well as those in various churches and even online, gathering the people&#8217;s prayer intentions. \u00a0The intentions were written on a white ribbon and tied to the grotto. \u00a0Saliman saw this as an opportunity to bring everyone together, as<a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/2015\/09\/15\/440477075\/art-installation-to-welcome-pope-francis-to-philadelphia\"> she said during her inteview on\u00a0NPR:<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;People have expressed a desire for inclusivity of all so that none are marginalized. And it&#8217;s also issues of homelessness and hunger, struggle, issues of race and immigration.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Knotted Grotto is located on the northern courtyard of the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul. \u00a0Pilgrims can write their own intention to add to the collection, while taking one of the intentions tied to the fence and bringing it into the grotto to offer a prayer on behalf of the stranger who wrote the intention.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer Rosenthal works as a nurse at Pennsylvania hospital and\u00a0walked a good distance to take in the Knotted Grotto on Thursday. \u00a0Rosenthal was inspired and shared her picture of the the grotto on her Facebook an Instagram accounts with the following words:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;SO beautiful SO humbling SO thankful I got to experience this #knottedgrotto&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Rosenthal reflected on the experience:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I went because [Pope Francis]\u00a0is an amazing man with a beautiful message and just once it was awesome to see this city come together in such a peaceful and amazing way. I&#8217;m so glad I walked the 20 blocks from work to get there. It&#8217;s something I will never forget&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Gina Guarnere of Bellmawr, New Jersey, visited\u00a0the grotto Wednesday with her six year-old son, Vince, and newborn son, Nate. \u00a0While Nathan is too young to participate, Guarnere saw the grotto as a wonderful opportunity for Vince.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I wanted Vince to be part of this once-in-a-lifetime event, so we braved the crowds and added our intention ribbons to the ever-growing thousands,&#8221; said Guarnere. \u00a0&#8220;It felt really special to see our prayers added to the cascade at Our Lady&#8217;s feet. \u00a0It was a great visual for Vince, who now understands what it is to unite his prayers with others who also need prayers.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The grotto should continue to attract attention, particularly\u00a0as tens of thousands head to the Benjamin Franklin Parkway for the Festival of Families Saturday and the Papal Mass on Saturday. \u00a0The Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul is located at 17th Street and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, very accessible on foot for those attending the Festival of Families and Mass.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/praytellblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-31383 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/praytellblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/2.jpg\" alt=\"2\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><em><span style=\"font-size: 8pt\">Photograph courtesy Jennifer Rosenthal.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pope Francis has a favorite painting: &#8220;Mary, Undoer of Knots&#8221;.
