This morning our pilgrims gathered with their families and supporters at the 9am Mass for a special blessing and received a medal of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, the first American born saint. Fr. Morrow reminded us of the great gift of a pilgrimage--the ability to make sacrifices and receive grace for ourselves and souls most need of God's grace. Fr. Morrow also offered a very personal plea to St. Anthony for warm weather while in the southern hemisphere which is in the middle of winter right now.
We are so thankful to all of our supporters, the Sodality, Holy Name Society, Dorothy Pasquel who worked so hard to cooridnate bake sales for our pilgrimage and our parents. We will be thinking of you throughout our trip.
Now...to the task of packing!
