"If you are what you are meant to be, you will set the whole world on fire." St. Catherine of Siena.
St. Catherine was the 24th of 25 children in her family (and you thought I came from a big family!). She had mystic visions from a young age and also at a young age decided never to marry. She became a Dominican tertiary and ministered to the sick and dying. She developed a reputation for performing miracles, settling disputes and mending feuds. Catherine even began a correspondence with Pope Gregory XI and was instrumental in bringing the papacy back to Rome from Avignon, France. Her feast day is April 29.
Today I am thankful for take-out food. Sometimes, one would just rather not cook.
