A hymn to household saints

[pensmama87]

Thought this would be pertinent today, especially after I took the kids to Mass this morning and had to leave early thanks to some epic Halloween hangover meltdowns (sugar, not alcohol):

aleteia.org/blogs/simchafisher/a-hymn-to-household-saints/

An excerpt:

For all the saints
Whose words are super true,
Who labored hard
To preach to me and you:
Please try again,
Until your face is blue:
Alleluia, Alleluia!

For all the saints
Whose names our babies bear,
Please take their hands
(And maybe brush their hair).
We’re working hard,
Not getting anywhere.
Alleluia, Alleluia!

Love it!our deacon gave a splendid homily on the saints we know…people from the parish that have died that were exemplary in deed, in suffering illness patiently, in good works, etc. Plus the ones with holy cards.

Beautiful, thanks for the link.
