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.

Please join me in offering a prayer of thanksgiving to God for some very generous people who are making somebody's Christmas possible without even being asked.

It can be hard for some people to accept charity without feeling 'weird' and beneath those who give. But when it is not possible to make the gifts annonomusly, It should be remembered that for the wealthy to practice charity, there have to be poor people to accept it. The poor are a vehicle for the practice of virtue of those who are in a better financial position.

It's Divine Providence at work.

Thank you all for your prayers!

Praying with you, Gloria, and rejoicing that caring people are willing to share during this holy season.

A most blessed intention, worthy of all of our fervent prayers. God Bless those in need of charity, and those who offer of themselves, in whatever manner they can.
