Today is the Feast of Saint Rose Philippine Duchesne, known as the ‘Lady of Mercy’ for her works of mercy with Native Americans and the poor.
“We cultivate a very small field for Christ, but we love it, knowing that God does not require great achievements but a heart that holds back nothing for self.”
