+ TO LIVE OUT LOVE

Soon we will celebrate the feast of St. Teresa of the Child Jesus, the Patron Saint of our parish.  The preparation has already started – we started the 9-day Novena.  Every day we pray a Litany to St. Teresa asking for her intercession for our parishioners, their intentions and you, our dear Friends and Benefactors.  If she promised to lavish the rain of graces from heaven on us, she now has the opportunity to do so :)  We do not know whether she knows anything about renovations, but we keep asking her for good workers, because before the winter starts, we need to complete a new floor in the office, because the mould invaded there and we had to get rid of it.  As far as spiritual matters are concerned, we ask her particularly for Zanna, Zenia and Jaroslaw who are preparing through catechesis to make their profession of faith.  They found us through ... the internet. The seeds need to be nurtured.

We are supported by the prayers of the Carmelite Sisters from Siberian Usole—the only Carmelites on the territory of Russia—and we are the only parish dedicated to St. Teresa in our tiny Diocese of Irkuck :)  Perhaps this is the reason for this profound bond? 

To live out love is to give without limits. St. Teresa of the Child Jesus
