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.

So, I mentioned in the Prayer Thread that dd applied to Benedictine, and then a few weeks later, updated with the fact that she got in.

Well!

They just called, and she is receiving a renewable each year, $9K a year scholarship from the College!!!! Oh, my goodness. This is such a huge, huge blessing, and I am just utterly astonished, as I had no idea they were going to offer something like this.

We still have a ways to go to afford it, but I believe it will all work out.   She is applying for scholarships all over the place, so that is good.

The only thing wrong with Benedictine, is that my little desert baby is going to freeze . She has been in snow twice in her whole life, I think, and that was as we drove by it.....
