- I'm a happily married woman with three children. We are a Catholic family. I am not British, but over the years (and there are plenty of those now) I have acquired a few of their terms and I use them (rightly or wrongly - I don't mind being corrected) frequently. I'm a firm believer in loving folk right where they are at. Ave Maria!

Congratulations on your state's newest Saint! What a tremendous honor! I am thrilled for you! Now, aren't you so glad that you live in Hawaii?
I love Damien! I read a book about his life a while back, it was very interesting!
Every year I do a Patron Saint draw for my blog readers and Fr. - now Saint - Damien is always on my list in the draw.
I am so excited about this...St. Damien so much earned this amazing honor! St. Damien, pray for us..we love you! Amen
Have you visited Moloka'i yet? We did on a trip to Maui. It was a great little pilgrimage.
BTW, love your spooky background. I've been thinking of making some changes to my blog. Do you like the program you use?
I heard about his canonization on the radio last week. I bet it was a great blessing to be in Hawaii yesterday =)
God bless you, Sarah!
I agree, what a blessing. Congratulations to you and to your state.
The MCCW group of gels are planning a trip to Moloka'i . . . I'll be with them, God willing. I think it's going to be in the spring next year? First up, in November is a visit to a Benedictine Monastery. I can't wait . . . I'll be sharing here, for sure.
btw, St. Damien benefits us all - and I mean ALL of us. Not just Hawaii . . . i know it goes w/out saying, but I had to say it.
oh, and I'm watching for the day the relics get placed at the Cathedral in Honolulu . . . I'll go maybe that day (depends on traffic etc. - and I'm not 'crowd' gel) . . . but I'll get there and take pics.
A great day for Hawaii and for us all. Another saint to admire and emulate.
What a beautiful picture/holy card?
He's one of my favorites... I watched that documentary about him on EWTN last week, and just started crying when the narrator (Robin Williams! Weird!) read from St. Damien's writings about how 'joyful he was to have leprosy so he could truly be like his people he loved so much'... wow!
