I'm all about encouraging people's self-confidence in their talents. Edited April 19, 2010 by zunshynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[quote]In hac Oratione, ad litteram N., exprimitur nomen Sancti Titularis propriae Ecclesiae; et nomina sanctorum Angelorum et sancta Joannis Baptistae, si titularis fuerint, praeponuntur nomini sancti Joseph.
