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.

It does make a very powerful image. I saw a similar picture yesterday when on the television coverage. I think the same grotto. And I saw several other St. Anthony, St. Francis grottos when we panned the area - said it was a big Irish Catholic neighborhood.

The devastation is so unreal, except it is real.

Thanks Jenn, that is amazing! It is hard for someone like me, whom, has never lived anywhere but CA to imagine that experience. Those images always speak volumes to me.
