This is the movement of the Holy Family.

Welcome to our Rosary meditation.

Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for,

especially the healing of Olivia and Margot through the intercession of

blessed Pauline Jericho. Today is the Feast of Turez of Lesus.

Pope John Paul II declared her a universal doctor of the church.

That means her teaching will help everyone who wants to be a saint.

And that teaching is called the little way.

In her diary she writes,

I have always wanted to be a saint.

Alas, I have always noticed that when I compared myself to the Saints, there is between them and me the same difference that exists between a mountain whose summit is lost in the clouds and the obscure grain of sand trampled underfoot by passers-by.

Instead of becoming discouraged, I said to myself,

God cannot inspire unrealizable desires. I can then, in spite of my

littleness, aspire to holiness. It is impossible for me to grow up and so I must bear with myself such as I am

with all of my imperfections.

But I want to seek out a means of going to heaven by a little way, a way that is very straight, very short, and totally new.

We are living now in an age of inventions and we no longer have to take the trouble of climbing

stairs for in the homes of the rich an elevator has replaced these very successfully. I wanted to find an elevator which would raise me to

Jesus, for I am too small to climb the rough stairway of perfection. I searched then in the scriptures for some sign of this of coming from the mouth of eternal wisdom. Whoever is a little one let him come to me.

And so I succeeded. I felt I had found what I was looking for.
