This morning, for Morning Prayer, I was surprised that we used the full Office of St. Joseph; this celebration of St. Joseph the Worker is just an opti… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dymphna Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Dear Sr. Christina, just to add to the confusion - I'm currently visiting friends in Bavaria and the mass today was in honor of "Mary, patron saint of Bavaria"! I had completely forgotten that this is not only a day off work here, but also a Catholic holiday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like you have had a healthy and happy one.... except for your foot of course, another one of lifes lessons. I also spent much time at my grandparents farm many years ago, and your right, we carry these experiences with us all our lives. Glad to hear that your seedlings have done well, they have found good soil and haven't withered. I hope the rest of your crops do equally as well, and if not then you still had the pleasure of getting your hands full of God's precious soil.....as well as under your fingernails. Thank you sister again for continuing your story of your seedlings progress. God bless you sister..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
