*Hummel, Mission Mary........January 30




"Place yourself in Mary's hands;
she will think of everything and provide for the needs
of soul and body.
Therefore, be at peace,
be at complete peace,
with unlimited confidence in her!"


St. Maximilian Kolbe

Friends,

I am guessing (from the absence of a halo) that the nun on the right represents a missionary sister of our times. On the left is St. Therese of Lisieux (note the roses/"little flowers"), who is co-patron saint of the Missions.

Thank you, Micki, for another great card.

John - I love the idea that St. Therese of Lisieux wanted to be a missionary but couldln't because of her health. So, she "adopted" a missionary to pray for and give us the example that we can do that also. Wonderful!
