1ST.FEBRUARY 2010 FEAST OF ST. BRIGID, THE BISHOP AND ANNE!
This is a little entry, mainly to send greetings to each one who is fortunate enough to bear the name, BRIGID. Today heralds the welcoming of Spring in Ireland! Enjoy your special day!
Our snowscene thawed in time for our Bishop Hil Kabashi to make the six hour journey here to say Mass yesterday. Afterwards, we invited him with his driver, Dimitri, for dinner. We were also joined by Anne, a young teacher who is unbaptized and Greek Orthodox. She has expressed great interest in our Catholic Church and was at Mass with us yesterday. Anne was a great help as a 'bridge' enabling conversation! Usually, the talk would quickly drift into German but not yesterday. We welcomed blue skies and great sunshine as our visitors left for Vlore.
Today, we are back to white skies and snow. Spring does not begin here for another month! Hope you have Spring weather to celebrate the day!
