Looking forward to being apart and hearing more about the election, what’s going on abroad, and in the church. Looking forward to seeing the community, returning pilgrims and others. Want to work on my inner spiritual life and to bring back much peace with myself and with my family and to friends. I would like peace for the holidays and for long after. Thanks Caritas for all you do and for giving us the opportunity to be closer to Mary and Her Son. Again, thank you and God Bless to all of You. Love Joanne
