Come at the shrine of God fervently kneel;
Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish—
Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.
~Thomas Moore, c.1813, published in Sacred Songs, 1816
"Blessed are they who mourn,
for they will be comforted." St. Matthew 5:4

We are all so blessed to be in your company.
Hannah is wanting to do more college online courses after her ordeal at school with a shooting that so many of her and her friends had to experience.
All the lock downs, and campus problems is like sending our kids into a war zone. Then her best friend had to deal with campus with 3 gunmen took students hostage and it held up students from going on with there whole day keeping hero friends all locked up until 9:00 pm.
This school is only a half hour from Hannah's college. Cal state Fullerton. Southern Calf.
This is all signs of the times,we need to stay close to our Lord taking shelter in his tent.
Thank you Kerrie your heart is in the right place, and you are such a blessing through him.
Kerrie, I have not forgotten you this year, I sent on a card to you along with others and forgot to place the city state, and zip so of course it was sent back to me:(
So I will be forwarding on to you the card and a little package for under your tree, this year I want you to open something after mass or Christmas morning :)
Talk to you later sweet dear friend.
