Prayers for the families and friends of the victims of Orlando's horrific tragedy... prayers for those in the hospitals and those
having to bear the memories of this terrorist' terrible evil deed!
A scripture from God's Holy Word for this time:
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39
Boudhanath Stupa (Kathmandu, Nepal) is home to one of the largest Buddhist stupas in the world, built during the 5th century AD.
For centuries, Boudhanath has been an important place of pilgrimage and meditation for Tibetan Buddhists & local Nepalis. It is located on what was a major trade route between Nepal & Tibet. Many traveling merchants used it as a resting place. It is also a popular tourist site. In 1979, Boudha became a UNESCO World Heritage Site

Mothering Sunday
In the medieval church people would use the fourth Sunday of Lent, Mothering Sunday, to make their Easter Duties in their ‘Mother Church’
Their Mother church was the church they were baptised in, and was frequently the parish their parents still lived in. After Mass it would seem natural to return to the family home for a meal.
After Henry split with Rome in 1534 many of the Catholic traditions and usages were lost. Mothering Sunday lives on in parts of the English-speaking world as both Mothering Sunday and Mother’s Day.
Happy Mother's Day and Happy Mothering Sunday
Prayer corner in my sleeping room, where I say my morning and my eavening prayers. The icons of the humility of Jesus and the sorrowfull Mother are printings from Romania, from the place where father Cleopa Ilie lived.

The Western Wall, also known as the Wailing Wall, is a 187-foot-high section of the ancient wall of Herod’s Temple, the second temple built on that spot. The Wailing Wall is on the western side of the Temple Mount in the Old City of Jerusalem. Herod the Great constructed the oldest layers of the wall between 20 B.C and 19 B.C. as the second Jewish temple was being built. The wall extends for 1600 feet, but houses built against it obscure most of its length. Today the exposed portion of the Wailing Wall faces a large plaza in the Jewish Quarter, which has been a venue for pilgrimage and prayer for Jews since the 16th century.
At least 17 layers of the wall are below the street level, but the massive lower stones, called ashlars, of the visible portion date to the time of Herod. These colossal limestone stones, each weighing between one to eight tons, were crafted with masterly precision so that they fit perfectly against each other without mortar. Some of the joints, however, have eroded, and orthodox Jews fill many of the chinks in the lower blocks with written prayers. The wall takes it name from the fact that, on a daily basis, many Jews gather at the wall to pray, chanting and swaying before the wall. They conduct daily and Sabbath prayers and celebrate Bar and Bat Mitzvah.
**So many prayers where the mortar once was. Such an impressive sight.**
