From the Opposite End of the Continent...

St. Herman of Alaska:

"The true Christian is a warrior making his way through the regiments of the invisible enemy to his heavenly homeland."

I love this quote; it seems so perfectly inspired & inspiring for this Pre-Lenten Season... as do these talks, shared recently by Fr. Michael Oleksa in Jacksonville, FL. at a Diocese of the South Clergy meeting. If you love history, art, anthropology, legends & lives of Saints, especially those who lived in America, these are some talks you’ll really enjoy! We listened to them as we drove from the Rio Grande Valley up to San Antonio last weekend, and we hardly wanted to get out of the car before the talks were completed!
