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.

We've come here so much over the past 13+ months, asking for housing prayers (to sell and to buy!) and we finally are done. Last night -- Feast of John the Baptist's Nativity -- we signed all the docs for our house! We finished about 9p.m. and it was just a love fest -- the closing guy has 10 kids and is a GREAT Catholic man, our realtor has just 3 littles but is also a wonderful Catholic man, and of course my husband who is an amazing Catholic man. I'm the only one who stressed and got all anxious and sure it wouldn't happen -- "o ye of little faith"!

Thanks to all you prayer warriors who have prayed us thru some rather trying/stressful times ... I'll get back on later this weekend and post the tale of the sale ....

Blessings and hugs and thanks so very much ... you'll never know how importanteach one of you is to me ....

The only down-side was we were so tired by the time we got home ... we never did celebrate!

But tonight!!!!!!

I'll be off a couple of days altho Comcast is pulling thru and coming out tomorrow! Fastest hook up we've ever had. AND, MaryM you'll particularly get a kick out of this ... we're going to have Cable TV for the first time in almost 15years!

Just came looking for your update, Mary

May God continue to bless you and keep you safe in your new home and....I know you will find a way to squeeze in some celebrating and to keep the smiles going, here's a you tube laugh you might identify with,
Brian Regan, phones and codes .

Love,
