Offering up our sufferings is so hard, but it's made so heavenly when we realize the good that can come from it. I attended Fr. Jan's funeral last night. It was an honor for me to be there, praying with so many of his friends and so many of his brother priests. It seems he suffered greatly here on earth. I pray that in God's mercy, his pain is no more.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06195528409761980551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970104655551891786.post-45795136004275248502013-07-31T16:40:44.506-05:002013-07-31T16:40:44.506-05:00Anne, I learned of a new problem today, one which ...Anne, I learned of a new problem today, one which affects my son, and all I can do is pray. I had been feeling pretty stressed and sad about it, and then I read this post. Thank you. I have offered up my suffering for priests, and prayed for Father Jan. As soon as I read your post, I knew the Lord had sent me here at this moment, so that I would not waste this cross. I love the Communion of Saints...and you!Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16544210857236830904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970104655551891786.post-73077485341177740902013-07-29T11:42:47.547-05:002013-07-29T11:42:47.547-05:00Dear Anonymous,

Can you suggest something that would be more effective? One Hail Mary in a decade of the Rosary seems inadequate in light of this post. <br /><br />Thank you for your beautiful blog.Maryellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09377453351113353957noreply@blogger.com
