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

Prayer..........October 19
"Persevere in prayer.
Persevere, even when your efforts seem barren. Prayer is always fruitful."
This is another new "pose" of holy characters that I have never before seen in a holy card.
One of the reasons I love your collection is its variety. I will never tire of the old/traditional cards, but I am delighted to see how 20th/21st-Century artists have been given new "lights" by the Holy Spirit.
John - It is always so good to see how others appreciate what we love. It is my joy to share these cards with you and I pray they also bring you closer in meditation of His great love. Thank you for all you do here.
