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.

Next week we are having a China week, eating rice only (for the grown ups) and rice with some protien and fruit for our son, as well as studying chinese culture (although not one of the books we borrowed from the library talks of the persecution of Christians there . The money we would ordinarily spend on food we plan to use to bless some organisation working to share Jesus with China. We could go through a charity dh has mailers from, but it is an aggressively protestant and charismatic charity and not our first choice.

Does anyone know of a good, Catholic charity we could consider?

My uncle is a priest and a Maryknoll missionary who just came home from (I think) 7 years in China. Here is a link

I don't want to be the beneficiary of this sweet sacrifice but will ask you to offer some prayers, we are beginning to try to plan a three month mission to China for our family in 2008. We are working on making our contacts and trying to figure out fundraising and financing options. Perhaps you could remember us as you pray?
