Saints' Friends


Saint Clare was a friend of Saint Francis who, though he never met her, was a friend of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary, who in turn was the great aunt of St. Elizabeth of Portugal. St. Francis was a friend of Saints Anthony and Dominic. Saint Dominic was a friend of Saint Hyacinth. He was also a friend of St. Amata of Assisi, who was related to St. Clare.

I guess you never know who your friends might eventually be!

Interesting bit of Catholic trivia. BTW, what are you guys doing with our pastor? :-) Fr. Gordy is now at our parish. BTW, I didn't know your mom was a model now? I saw her in a Hawaii Parent magazine ad for Pauline Books ha ha. She's famous!
