Today is the feast day of Mother Cabrini, a young frail Italian saint. She is also the first canonized American citizen. There is a story about her climbing the stairs of a tall building in Chicago, going into a large corporate office and requesting funding for the poor and her schools. It worked---they were impressed w/her and donated to her cause.
I think of this story every time I remember the climb up the stairs of her Golden Colorado shrine. We are blessed to have the saints among us!
Take care, stay healthy, and keep in touch.
Love, Mom
