the light irradiating from the Blessed Sacrament,
and it is the heart of Jesus that I must look to
for the solution of all my troubles." - St John XXIII

a heavenly school is open to you,
with the best teacher
one can possibly imagine,
Jesus Christ Himself."

Perhaps the testimony of the world
at the death of Pope John XXIII
was best expressed by a newspaper drawing of the earth
shrouded in mourning with the simply caption,
"A Death in the Family."
St John XXIII, pray for us!
