He who places his hope on thee, O Virgin all-glorious, will prosper in all he does.

Blessed Fast!

I won't be writing posts or comments until New Calendar Nativity.



1Now in the twenty and fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sackclothes, and earth upon them.

2And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all strangers, and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.

3And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of the LORD their God one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped the LORD their God.


Nehemiah 9:1-3 (KJV)
