Our three Fathers

There is a fact we must acknowledge: we do not choose saints, it is they who chose us. Visitors often aks: "why do you invoke these two nineteenth century saints, St Seraphim of Sarov and Saint Jean-Mary Vianney?"

The answer is simple: "They were the first to introduce us to the hidden wealth of the Church and to lead us to understand better these words of Jesus: "Make friends for yourselves in Heaven...."
