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

Feast of St. Philippine Duchesne...November 18
"Humility is the virtue that requires the greatest amount of effort."
Thank you Micki, for introducing me to another Saint I had not heard of before. Lovely icon style holy card and an inspiring quote! A daily blessing delivered Micki Thank you!!
Micki, hi again! I don't know if you remember me, we emailed back and forth about St. Catherine of Alexandria. I was wondering if you have any of St. Ursula that you wouldn't mind sharing?
Faint notations on the card indicate that the standing figure is St. Madeleine-Sophie Barat and the kneeling figure is her "daughter in religion," St. Rose Philippine Duchesne.
Great quote, very true!
