Therefore, join me in a day of reflection. I am fasting for the worldwide fast and prayer for peace and the end of severe persecutions in the Middle East and Africa especially. I can fast.
Take time to review posts from the past today, as I take a bit of a down day, although it is also laundry day and phone friends day. I shall work slowly. Also, pray for two financial needs I have right now which are not small. Thanks.
I hope to blog later when I get some energy back....here are some suggestions from old reading today. Tomorrow is the feast of St. Pio of Pietrelcina, so enjoy these posts.
