Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

According to my copy of Companion to the Calendar... tomorrow, Sept. 26, is the optional memorial of Saints Cosmas and Damian, the patron saints of twins.

Thanks. Last year we did a dinner for them but I forget what it was that I did! My son was interested but not my dd-she however loves the The HOly Twins and wants our new baby to be born on St. Scholastica's birth date....
