Month Of August

Most popular month in the internet may be December. However, month of August is the favourite. Generally the weather is warm and more pleasant. Everyone can enjoy and soak in the sun while there is still warmth in it. Farmers, fruit growers and all who work on the earth love it since it is the month to reap the fruit of their labours. As Children of Mary. we look forward as well to celebrate the feast of the Assumption of our Lady on August 15th and on the following week her coronation as Queen of Heaven.

It has been a few blessed weeks in our family. My sister was not very well and asked many to pray. She has recovered amazingly and thank God for His blessing and for so many other things. Children took part in some of the reading challenges -Space Chase, no school, playing outdoor most of the time, time with our cousins, arise fundraising in Sheffield, visiting museums, attending Summer camps with FSSP, Formby beach,pottery

Mid Summer days


Last week it was the Feast of St James on July 25th. He is one of the disciples who martyred for the faith and the body was brought to spain and was buried. The journey was a difficult one by sea and the symbol is a  scallop shell . The burial place is  a great pilgrimage which is Compostela in Spain. It was an old custom that children can prepare grotto and decorate with shells from the beach during sunny days.

Reminded of this , we went for a walk in Malvern hills in Worcester with Thomas family. Most of the children climbed the peak with Jobycha and that was a great time though there was showers on and off. Left there at 9 pm.




 As well as that, libraries are doing Summer reading challenge.Theme is 'Space Chase' for this year and Theresu and Georgu went for a space helmet craft workshop which was interesting and fun for both.
