Our trip was so wonderful! I don't even know where to begin. I think that I will have to post in parts (like AYWH did about their adoption story.) Hopefully I can get the first one done tonight.
I was honored to pray for LifeHopes during Lent. She is such a faithful woman of God and it's been a joy to watch her grow into her new role as mother! We have become in-real-life friends and I wish we lived close enough to get together more often. I prayed for her every morning during Lent. I offered up Masses, Rosaries, and special prayers in both Lourdes and Rome. I will continue to pray for you D! :)
I can't wait! Wow, I love that you had Lifehopes! Looking forward to Part I of your pilgrimage and lots of pics! :)
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to reading all about the experience. Wow!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to part I!!! Sounds like an amazing trip!!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear about your pilgrimage.
ReplyDeleteWelcome come! So glad you had a safe and holy trip. Your list sounds like it could be made into a "12 days of Christmas" song! Can't wait to hear about it!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back safely and had such a memorable time. I can't thank you enough for mailing me all the seder stuff, my class did SUCH a great job with it, they were so good, I let them have free day this past Monday. Can't wait to do it again next year with my next religion class, thanks again! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I can't wait to read your recaps! Thank you for giving us the detailed "play by play"! God Bless!
ReplyDeleteI am very late in catching up on your pilgrimmage to Lourdes. Just read part I and started crying at the vision of you laying down your will for His ... you have such a beautiful soul!
ReplyDeleteThank you SO much for every prayer. I cannot tell you how grateful I am for that ... I am so thankful for our friendship, too:)
I promise to continue to pray for you daily also, as I have been doing for quite a while now!
