RECENT POSTS and THANKS to readers, benefactors

I made a change to the sharing buttons plugin.  I think the blog loads a little faster now.  Perhaps you could make greater use of the buttons? Pretty please?

I am deeply grateful to all of you benefactors who donate regularly, occasionally, or who send items from my wish lists. I will say Holy Mass for my benefactors again on Tuesday, 17 January.  Always included are, of course, DY and GS.

Remember to use the YOUR URGENT PRAYER REQUESTS post.  To post, you need to be registered and approved. HERE
