Francis (surely Francis Reynolds) is still very ill and asks all members to pray for him — his pain is very severe as he has broken a bone in his back. One can only imagine the excruciating pain he is suffering and how he endures so much illness is hard to understand. As I’ve often said he never complains — so we ask Blessed Alexandrina to once again intercede for him and for all members of the Society suffering pain.

Little Words of Inspiration

 

(From the Rosary Letter)

A faithful friend is a sure shelter; whoever finds one, has found a rare treasure.

 

   Life is like a mirror.

   If you look at it and frown

   It will frown back at you.

   If you look at it and smile

   It will smile back at you.

 

We ask Blessed Alexandrina to intercede for all Society members and may God bless us.
