Dearest sweetest fellow Pilgrims, I am truly sad to have been absent from Breathing Catholic for so long. As an athlete of Christ my chair has vastly contributed to the extreme pain I am in (I work on a Desktop not a Laptop). I am still struggling along in prayerful hope, ever trusting that by the Grace and Will of God, I will be allowed to return very soon. Even little by little will be better than nothing! 🙏💖🤗 Ana
Let us in the interim, follow faithfully to the words of St Pius V and please, I beseech you, to add your intercessory prayers to mine. I pray our Gracious and Kindest Lord will bless you all but, unlike St Pius V, I have not the strength to pray: “O Lord, increase my sufferings and my patience!” (just the Patience please Lord).
“Following the example of our predecessors,
seeing that the Church Militant
which God has placed in our hands,
in these our times, is tossed this way and that
by so many heresies and,
is grievously troubled and afflicted by so many wars
and by the depraved morals of men,
we also raise our eyes, weeping but full of hope,
unto that same mountain,
whence every aid comes forth
and we encourage and admonish,
each member of Christ’s faithful
to do likewise in the Lord.”
St Pius V (1504-1573)

Amen! May the healing power of Jesus, the Great Physician, re
turn your servant, Ann, to health and well-being. I pray Heavenly Father in the name of your Son, my Saviour, Jesus Christ! Amen
