Heartfelt Sharing

I am blown away by the pictures I am getting daily from people who have a devotion to Our Lady of Charity. I’ve been posting on Instagram and Facebook and invite you to see those submissions.

This lovely painting hangs in the Shea Family living room in Miami, Florida. It’s sweet and familiar (and familial!).

happy birthday, Cachita!

It’s the feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. As Cuban-Americans, on this day we celebrate the patroness of Cuba, Our Lady of Charity.

It’s rough to be so far away from family and friends today. Instead of celebrating, though, they are packing up in the face of an impending hurricane, Irma.

This, on the heels of the devastation in Texas and the Gulf coast.

For the first time that I know of, Miami receives a dispensation for not attending Mass this Sunday. In fact, all Masses are cancelled. Wow.

Pray for those in the path of Irma. I put my trust in Jesus, and Cachita, who once upon a time, stilled those waters.
