Dear Archbishop Prendergast,
ReplyDeleteGreetings from New Jersey USA !
You have a wonderful blog - and some very nice pictures. I was blessed a few years ago to attend a Lay Missionary of Charity retreat at St. Michael's College in Toronto. The retreat was awesome. The MC sisters from Toronto also attended some of our conferences with Fr. Sebastian Vazhakala, MC.
God bless you and all the good people of your flock.
