Spiritual heirloom

Elena the Emperess

Your choice.

Elena wore it in a long platt and linnen is cultivated on her feast day to symbolise its strength.  Saint Clare had it cut by San Francesco' s own hands in sign of humility and obedience.

But no shortcuts on the path to faith!

PC note For those who have...for those who don't...let the Lord shine forth from atop :)

Saint Clare

Saint Clare

Please forgive my slip on tradition if I entrust all workers to her prayers.

Been reading a book on John Paul II pilgrimage to Maremma visiting factories, mines and other places where industrious humanity was allowed to flourish in working conditions fully respectful of human dignity.

Though the way is still long...but just think of what Saint Francesco did with a small bunch of friars restructuring that ruined  church - with the intercessory prayers of Saint Clare ;)
