Third Day of Christmas


 

Feast of the Holy Family.

"Jesus, Mary and Joseph, living in exile in Egypt to escape the fury of an evil king, are, for all times and all places, the models and protectors of every migrant, alien and refugee of whatever kind who, whether compelled by fear of persecution or by want, is forced to leave his native land, his beloved parents and relatives, his close friends, and to seek a foreign soil." - (From Pope Pius XII, in his apostolic constitution “Exsul Familia”)

  1. Holding you in prayer today, dear Terry!

    Sometimes, when God leads us on a path we had not considered, it is hard to see why until a few months or years have passed. Surely this is how the Holy Family felt. But if it is God leading us, all will be well eventually. Peace and good to you, brother!
