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.

OK, I have to share this article! My oldest daughter is in Rome right now on the University of Dallas program, and she and several of her friends were chosen to be interviewed by several news agencies as "student voices" responding to the Holy Father's resignation. This article just appeared today, and I have to share it! It's been amazing to "see" all these events unfold through her experiences there, and amazing to see her faith, which was always pretty strong, really flower in response to all this history happening right in front of her.

Anyway, enjoy!

Sally
