Dear Ladies of TASTE,

What a beautiful and special time of prayer we had at our healing Mass last Thursday!  The healing Masses were always very dear to Marian's heart, and we can only imagine that she was praying and rejoicing with us.  A special thank you to the organizers, Karen Giermek and Michele Cardamone as well as the many others who contributed to make the day so wonderful.  The biographies of the saints we venerated as well as photos from our day can be found on  the  HEALING MASS    tab of our website.

The healing Mass left us well prepared to move in to All Saints Days and pray for the intercession of the entire community of saints, even those who have not been made known to us through canonization.  On All Soul Day we remembered Marian and our other TASTE sisters (Anne McPherson, Jo Ebling, Eileen Stewardt, Debbie VanLandingham and Alethea Patterson) who have left the Church Militant.  We ask for their prayers for us, and we rejoice in the knowledge that we all continue to be united as members of the Communion of Saints!

Let us never tire of thanking and praising our Heavenly Father for the blessings he has bestowed upon us through our Catholic Faith!
