Today we recall the life of Francis Xavier Warde who died on this date in 1884. What a great time to recall her blessings and gifts to the world. There were over 100 foundations and missions started by her in the U. S. Little did she know how we would grow in the years to follow. Today I want to quote an article found in Carlow Annals that described our American Mother.
"Of a very cheerful disposition herself, Rev. Mother encouraged the Sisters to be so too;
she would laugh heartily at little witicisms, and invariably gave recreation...a most
gracious approval. Like our Holy Foundress, she was particualrly fond of music, and
often called on the Sisters to contribute to the general amusement by their vocal and
instrumental attainments..."
May your day be filled with cheer and laughter!
