From today's Liturgy of the Hours:

God our Father, you called Frances Xavier Cabrini from Italy to serve the immigrants of America. By her example teach us concern for the stranger, the sick, and the frustrated. By her prayers help us to see Christ in all the men and women we meet.

Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, on God, for ever and ever.

Anybody know how to ping the Illinois Freepers who may be interested?

I went to St. Francis Cabrini grade school in West Bend, Wisconsin. Those years were fond memories and we learned quite a bit about our school's patron saint. Thanks for the post.

You're welcome. I tried to post to the Illinois profile site but can't figure out how to do it. I wonder if any of the Illinois freepers can draw attention to the article. I'm sure some of them would be interested.

Things have changed in that neighborhood now and Cabrini Green is the marijuana of choice.

It's really too bad that the goobermint powers-that-be named a public housing project after this saint, giving "Cabrini" a bad name!

When Mom came for a visit a few weeks ago, we went to the Cabrini shrine just West of Denver.
If I can figure out "how" I'll post pic's.
