Please pray

Please pray for Carrie Tomko, battling cancer and despair. Carrie is one of the many victims of the scandal in the Church.  Her faith has been seriously wounded and she’s at the point of being so discouraged by the evil she sees in the...

Accomplished so far

To cheer myself up and remind myself that some progress has been made. 4 bags of clothing delivered to St. Vincent de Paul Society this morning. The little old ladies who run the thrift shop were almost as happy to see them coming as we were to see...
