Feast of the Most Holy Rosary

Holy Mother help all Catholics to use this great gift of you Holy Rosary for the spiritual growth of souls and for the salvation of souls.
Today there was a banner by the Sanctuary with a quote from Mother Teresa which said that a country that accepts abortion is the poorest of the poor. Lord, if it is Thy Will, I would like to help the unborn and the institution of marriage. I just read about Eleanor Rude who spent her last years serving the unborn and their mothers on Dawn Eden's blog. Falling Sparrow said that she just died. Bless her and her example.
I am elated that I got a comment on this blog. It is fitting that it is from a Portuguese speaker because I have a sister-in-law who married an Azorean and lives in the Azores with her family and a brother-in-law who married a Portuguese lady and lives in the Azores with two children.
I am attempting to learn Espaniol (I have two daughters who are fluent in Spanish.) as preparation for learning Italian so that I can read Dante, but I will add Portuguese to my list. I may fail in all three goals, but I can and will appreciate the speakers of all three languages with a greater love.
Thank you, mi amigo, from Brazil, the Azores or Portugal. You have blessed me. Now I have an audience and a reason to try to be more consistent (and to learn Portuguese).
