We Found Saint Valentines Day Cards ❣️ And Our Newest Saint Medal, London’s Saint John Fisher, the Patron of Life Coaching, Motivational Speaking and Influencers.

Yes, we are using a bit of poetic license and contemporizing Saint John Fisher’s Patronages. That’s ok, we’re not Pope Francis I. Our story will concentrate on John Fisher’s abilities as a Public Speaker Patron, Debater and, if modernized, the Patron of “Influencers.” We will send a quick note when he is up on our website but in the meantime please talk him up on Tik Tok where he could and should be Influential.

Day 5 of Lent 2023 🐑 Saint Bernadette

Day 5 of Lent 2023 🐑 Saint Bernadette

A more interesting event occurred, in my opinion, when we were traveling the French countryside by car and arrived in Nevers, France. The guidebooks said Saint Bernadette was there so we went to the church to take a look. It was locked up and closed, so we visited the replica of the Lourdes Grotto and were about to travel to another town. As we were doing that a side of the wall of the church opened up and people walked out! I was with my friends Mary, Michele, and Rick and one of them or I went over to see if we could get through this now unlocked open door. We were not able to talk to the people leaving but we could say “Bonjour” and smile.

24th Day of Lent - Our Lady of Medjugorje 🌄 Miracle Worker - The Place for Prayer is Everywhere

Something happened to me. It was the strongest feeling of Faith I had ever experienced in my life. To say it was emotional is quite the understatement. It was definitely conversionary. My pilgrimage to see Our Lady of Medjugorje was the most profound I have ever experienced.

Happy 4th of July Weekend – Here are the Contest Results

For the 4th of July Weekend we are doing something different! Long ago, some of you will remember we were selling “ThaItalian” Sterling Silver Bracelets covered with our hand-painted saint medals. We stopped doing it when we ran out of the sterling silver because when we went to re-order, it was obvious we could not sell the bracelets with lots of our hand-painted medals. The prices had increased, and everything put together just made it too expensive. However ….
