Try to enter the narrow way...

Abba Poemen said: 'Teach your heart to follow what your tongue is saying to others.' He also said, 'Men try to appear excellent in preaching but they are less excellent in practising what they preach.'

    There is a nice article on the Translation of The Holy House of Our Lady of Loreto. It can be found at: www.traditioninaction.org/SOD/j255sd_Loreto_12_10.html

    Isn't it nice to have two feast days of Our Lady within the Octave of the Immaculate Conception? The mercies of God.

    In the mid 1980's when Nelson Mandela was still residing in the segregation unit of a South African prison I was appointed as the site surveyor for the Unity Project in the London Borough of Southwark. Pelican House was the site office for this Housing Works, Direct Labour Contract.

    As an idealistic newly qualified RICS surveyor just returning from a period of retreat at Mount Meleray in Ireland, the dream that I had the night before I started the UNITY project could only be interpreted and described as a BIG DREAM.

    A SINNER'S DREAM OF MARY

    When I was out a wandering upon the hills so green.
    I spied myself a vision of a bright celestial Queen.

    (Refrain)
    A rosary,a rosary with rainbows all around.
    A blood red cross she gave to me upon that hallowed ground.

    She wore a crown of silver and in her arms she bore.
    A child who was the future of mans peace and not of war.

    (Refrain)
    A rosary,a rosary with rainbows all around.
    A blood red cross she gave to me upon that hallowed ground.

    Corpus Christi woman was the lady that I saw.
    Build inside she said to me mans inner self once more.

    (Refrain)
    A rosary,a rosary with rainbows all around.
    A blood red cross she gave to me upon that hallowed ground.

    Virgo praedicanda ora pro nobis!

    Our Lady of the Rosary pray for us!
