More saints are packed into this rich week of not-so-Ordinary Time:
- Today is the feast of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary
- Tomorrow is the feast of St. Rose of Lima
- Wednesday is the feast of St. Bartholomew
- Thursday is the feast of St. Louis
- Saturday is the feast of St. Monica
Wow — that’s a whole lot of role models packed into a week’s time. Maybe it would be fun to match a statement from below with the corresponding saint above? Give it a try:
- was a third-order Dominican
- martyrdom by flaying
- King of France
- a “woman clothed with the sun”
- a devoted [and patient] mother – prayed twenty years to convert her son
How blessed we are to have such a rich collection of friends to inspire us.
