As many of you already know, I love Saint Patrick’s Day. So this March I teamed up with my fellow Irish ladies Janet (mom of the Satterlee family) and Shea (daughter) to have a little party for our teens. We all wore green, had a traditional Irish breakfast (minus the coffee), and enjoyed homemade Irish Soda bread and green frosted cookies. We even said a typical Irish blessing for our meal.
That night I attended mass in the cathedral with our new and beloved Irish bishop Monsignor Lenihan. It was truly comforting to know that even when I am living in far off La Ceiba with Honduran teenagers, the community of my Irish ancestors’ stills proves very present and supportive.
May the many blessings of Saint Patrick continue to grant us all much grace.
