Ave Maria ♪

Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum. Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Iesus. Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc, et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen.

St. Therese of Lisieux

Sancta Teresia, ora pro nobis!

St. Therese's Little Way

Love - Since Christ is love, and Christ dwells within us...

Abandonment - Everything owned is from God, shouldn't we share what we have generously?

Confidence - With God's help, anything is possible.

Humility - Not just about being humble, but accepting all trials or joys with grace.

Patron Saint for 2011!

Quotes

"You know well enough that Our Lord does not look so much at the greatness of our actions, nor even at their difficulty, but at the love with which we do them."

"Be not afraid to tell Jesus that you love Him; even though it be without feeling, this is the way to oblige Him to help you, and carry you like a little child too feeble to walk."

~Saint Therese~

Quotes

-It is not fitting, when one is in God's service, to have a gloomy face or a chilling look.

-Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words.

-Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

-While you are proclaiming peace with your lips, be careful to have it even more fully in your heart.

~St. Francis of Assisi~

Aloha! Where r u from?

The Road Goes Ever On - By Bilbo Baggins

Roads go ever ever on,

Over rock and under tree,

By caves where never sun has shone,

By streams that never find the sea;

Over snow by winter sown,

And through the merry flowers of June,

Over grass and over stone,

And under mountains of the moon.

The Road goes ever on and on

Down from the door where it began.

Now far ahead the Road has gone,

And I must follow, if I can,

Pursuing it with weary feet,

Until it joins some larger way,

Where many paths and errands meet.

And whither then? I cannot say.

Roads go ever ever on

Under cloud and under star,

Yet feet that wandering have gone

Turn at last to home afar.

Eyes that fire and sword have seen

And horror in the halls of stone

Look at last on meadows green

And trees and hills they long have known.

The Road goes ever on and on

Out from the door where it began.

Now far ahead the Road has gone,

Let others follow it who can!

Let them a journey new begin,

But I at last with weary feet

Will turn towards the lighted inn,

My evening-rest and sleep to meet

The End

Wow, you made it this far, congrats!
Thanks 4 visiting, and may God bless you on your journey!
