"The bitterest tears shed over graves
are for the loving words left unsaid
and kind deeds left undone.

IMAGO SACRA MILLE GRATIARUM VALET. ("A holy picture is worth a thousand graces")................... This blog is a means to show some of my holy card collection along with some interesting thoughts and inspirations. "....artists have the privilege in the Church and throughout history, to open up so that people can see the mystery of God. The artist speaks, not just literally, but symbolically. Visual images, if well done, can move us. That's a ministry." Quote from Brother Michael Moran, C.P

Friends,
Here is the meaning of the card's Latin words:
"Hail, o Cross, the only hope!"
John
What perfect timing for I just came back from my best friend's mother's funeral. She was taken up to heaven after a brave yet short battle with cancer and will be missed!
John - Thank you.
KStar - To lose our earthly mother is always so difficult. Prayers go out for all of you. May she rest in peace.
A beautiful card! Thank you!
I love this, and I'd like to link.
Sara - Thank you for visiting and leaving a comment.
Alexandra - Sure, go ahead. My pleasure :-)
I posted one of your St Francis de Sales...it was more cheerful, and I've got a few readers who need this right now. I'm so glad you are here on the web. Bless you. :)
Alexandra - It looks great at your site. Hope it brings peace to someone.
Hey, I LOVE your connection for the free clip art...I'll have to add something to my sidebar :-)
Do you know how I do that? I know how to save it but not how to get it in the sidebar. Thanks.
