Father Richard ... I hope its alright to print off the little rap in today's message ... my grandchildren will love it! Sr. Clare is in my prayers from now on ... part of the list in the back of my prayer book. yours in Jesus and Mary. - Nona, Dear Father Sudano,
It was interesting to read your comments about the steel cross at the site of the
destruction of 9/11.

Just wanted to pass on the we had our own local miracle here in Connecticut just
this past Saturday, 9/11/04. There was a propane gas leak at St. Mary's Ukrainian Catholic Church located in
Glastonbury, Connecticut; and the church was reduced to rubble. A white marble statue of our Blessed Mother, her head bowed and hands folder in prayer, just 25 feet from the church, was untouched by the explosion. The newspaper article stated
"the blast was so powerful it knocked over chairs in nearby homes and could be heard for ten miles." Many people from all faiths are coming to see the statue and calling it a miracle. The Connecticut State Police have to direct traffic on this small side road. The explosion happened at 6:45 a.m. Not long after it took place, parishioners had been scheduled to come and prepare some food for a breakfast gathering. One man was quoted that he already had one leg on the ground getting out of his car to do his volunteer work when it happened. He was not injured. I thought you would find this interesting. I read your letters every day as well as those of Father Benedict and have included him and the friars in my morning and evening prayers. I am a member of St. Mark the Evangelist Roman Catholic Church in West Hartford, Connecticut. -Lonni,

September
