Yes I di-id.
They both wrote back too. They told me I was doing nothing wrong and could go to communion.
What?
I lost the letter from John XXIII but still have the one from JPII - although I've since learned both were written by a secretary. (I convince myself both Popes dictated the contents after reading my sweet letters.)
Too good to call me I guess.
One Christmas I remember sending a Christmas-card to Pope John II and then a Christmas-greeting via the internet to Pope emeritus Benedict XVI. HOPE they liked/appreciated them if they saw them!! And then twice I wrote and sent-in some wonderful graces and favors received from praying to St. Padre Pio and St. Giuseppina Bakhita to the Vatican and received responses from a Fr. Peter Gumpel. It felt great to receive a response from a priest at the Vatican City.
