I hope it goes through and he is sainted. <BR/><BR/>“His cassock was worn and faded, his hair tumbled like a school-boy’s, his hands stained and hardened by toil; but the glow of health was in his face, the buoyancy of youth in his manner; while his ringing laugh, his ready sympathy, and his inspiring magnetism told of one who in any sphere might do a noble work, and who in that which he has chosen is doing the noblest of all works. This was Father Damien.”<BR/>- Charles Warren Stoddard, who visited Kalawao in 1884jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07104525217513130314noreply@blogger.com
