nikita92 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 She started the Catholic orphange here in Seattle. My father was given to them in 1930. It was ran by nuns. (he was adopted out later that year by my Catholic grandmother. He even became a alter boy. Once puberty hit..changed in his faith) she also worshipped in Seattle's beautiful cathedral as well.

IgnatiusofLoyola Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) Well, one black mark against me. Mother Cabrini was one of the saints picked for me for this coming year in Lil Red's drawing. When I looked up my new saints, did I remember to write down their feast days? Of course not. So, thank-you for this reminder. I hope she forgives me. Edited November 14, 2012 by IgnatiusofLoyola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigJon16 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 My parish, which is the Italian-American parish in my city was built specifically for the Immigrants such as my great grandparents. Our Chapel is named after and dedicated to Mother Cabrini. I love her! She has really been 'saint stalking' me a lot lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
