Monday Memo

I thought it would be quite fitting to share quotes of our newly canonized St. Marianne Cope. I did some reading on her yesterday as well, and she is wonderful! Naturally, I mean any saint is basically an amazing person and example for us to look up to... Here's a few encouraging quotes for your week from our new saint during her time on this earth, serving the poor and in-firmed.

"The charity of the good knows no creed and is confined to no one place." 

“For us it is happiness to be able to comfort, in a measure, the poor exiles, and we rejoice that we are unworthy agents of our heavenly Father through whom He deigns to show His great love and mercy to the sufferers."  

“Let us make the very best use of the precious moments and do all in our power for His dear sake and for His greater honor and glory." 

“If we, with the help of God, do our duty and work for His honor and glory no one will interfere with us."

“Creep down into the heart of Jesus.  He alone can comfort you in your supreme hour of sorrow." 

“May God give you health and strength so you will be able to lead the little ones to Him and teach them to love God more than any thing in this world." 

And you can read more about our dear sister in Christ here.

Happy Monday!
