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.

A space appeared in the middle of the word grace, so that will need to be removed. :)

That was beautiful.

Hi Angi ~ yes! I noticed that space as well, before I submitted this thread. I don't understand why that happened, because when I copied and pasted it from the original, it did not have that space in it.
You will be happy to know that it does not matter:)
The link will still take you to the article:):)
By the way, I tried editing it, but it is not working. You are welcome to give it a try!
Cheers!

I am sorry, you are correct, it does work. I should not have said anything.

Thanks for posting this, "Nique", you are too kind!

About two weeks after I sent our Christmas letter out this year, I was contacted by phone by a man who had read it and forwarded it to one of the senior editors of Catholic Exchange . Apparently one of my friends had scanned it and distributed it electronically , and it had made its way around the internet.

All names have been changed, so were good with everyone knowing its me .

But I'm still reeling over it all!
