Wednesday - The tenth Anniversary of Mother Teresa going to Heaven
Well, I am sure today will be a beautiful day - because God will be showing his love for the faithfulness of Mother Teresa to all the world. Perhaps beautiful things will happen.
Mother Teresa died on the fifth of September - on the eighth of September her funeral was being televised when I went to visit my dad who suffered from Parkinson's and dementia and had just broken his hip. The second one in six months. As I walked in the room I took one look at my poor dad in pain in his bed and then at the TV displaying the funeral of Mother Teresa... and I said to her. "Dear Mother, please come and get my dad!" And she did! Four days later my dad went to heaven even though all the medical staff were very surprised because they didn't think he was that close. But Mother Teresa had pity on him.
I have no doubt that she like "the little flower" is doing even more good in heaven than all the wonderful, loving things she did while she was on earth with us. This must be a very holy and happy day.. in Heaven and on Earth.
Blessings of Peace and All Good,
Sister Patricia
The Confession Connection The Sacrament of Reconciliation: Celebrating God's Forgiveness by Sandra DeGidio, O.S.M. Day Fifteen: Confession: Externalizing what is within A question that often arises is: Why confess my sins? And why confess to a priest? Why not confess directly to God, since God has already forgiven me anyway? From God's point of view, the simple answer is: There is no reason. But from our point of view, the answer is that human beings do not live in our minds alone, we need to externalize bodily—with words, signs and gestures—what is in our minds and heart. We need to see, hear and feel forgiveness—not just think about it. To be continued A selected article from "101 Inspirational Stories of the Sacrament of Reconciliation." |

My scenario=Jesus didn't know what to give His Blessed Mother for her birthday. So He brought up Mother Theresa for her to be her Beloved companion. I always think The Blessed Mother was born on the 8th of Sept.
I love your website!!! I am so happy I found it!! Love Marie
How can it be 10 years???
Can I ask the community out there to pray for my 2 sisters, one for her health, and one for a family issue? I believe prayer can work miracles, and hope that many of you will want to help. Blessings and thanks.
Dear Sr. Patricia,
Will you be willing to have readers send their stories of prayer to you soon? Thank you.
