The month of October opens with two saints who are great favourites among faithful; St Therese and St Francis. They have such a universal appeal that they embody a profound and simple radicality in their faith. Finally , it is autumn, we are having harvest festivals....
At home, it was feasts of some children and we had a little treat and feast . On the Feast of St Therese, Theresu and Geo decorated our altar with fake roses and decorated with St Therese cards with glitter,listened to her wonderful story. I had a miracle, thought usually St Therese in her story , she promised to send roses from heaven and I thought let me try and hope for a rose. By evening 10 pm, to my surprise and my prayers heard from heaven I truly believe. My husband received a rose from the place where he went for a course. He in fact brought for our little Theresu , however I realised that it was my wish and prayer that day to St therese to have a rose flower. Thank God.

Following that weekend, we went to Walsingham, Marian shrine for the pilgrimage as part of Marian Voyage and great experience. It was tradition to walk bare foot from slipper chapel and I felt bit ashamed to walk since many from our group was not doing. To my surprise, Annu's boots broke and I gave up mine for her and ended up walking barefoot and I did it as a penance.
It was another beautiful weekend , mich went for Piano competition as part of Syro malabar church and he got an opportunity to attend a two days conference on 'Youth in Business' , Manchester which run by an Australian team. It was a nice experience for me too and prompted me to start my own business which I have to work on it.
The second week of october was a caravan holiday for ours and Thomas family. Took a break from our school and stayed in Sunnyvale holiday park in North wales. Children enjoyed being together , in swimming pool, chattering, playing outdoor and so on..Beautiful place with lots and lots of amazing beaches, pebbles, sands, caves and so on. WOW... so great beaches. ..wish to come back again. From there our journey continued to St David's cathedral. What a wonderful place to visit...
Visiting St David's cathedral was so beautiful though we were not expected to visit. David was live
in Wales. He was a prince born to a royal family. He was a monk and an young man, travelled from place to place telling people about Jesus and set up new monasteries. I the picture of St David, he carries a dove, the time to choose a new leader for the church of Wales- someone with strong faith. The place was thronged and everyone came and speak...no one could be heard. Someone said to send David which he didn't want to be new leader. However, he was at last persuaded to come. He took his place on the mound of clothing and prayed to God. A white dove , the sign of Holy Sp
irit, came and sat on his shoulder. then, when he spoke, everyone listened and was convinced of his wisdom and and made him the leader.
