21st Sunday after Pentecost

II Class
God is good towards us: let us be the same towards our brethren. If we pardon our brethren from the bottom of our hearts, our Lord Jesus Christ will remit our debts.

Commemoration of St. Placid and His Companions, Martyrs
St. Placid, when four years old, was committed by his father Tertullus to the care of St. Benedict, who sent him later to Sicily. He was murdered with his monks, out of hatred for the Faith, by heathen pirates in 541.

Here is Maria this morning before Divine Liturgy practising how to look perfectly angelic.

The weather today was absolutely fabulous. After a good hearty brunch we took a long walk around the edges of Gaming. We saw lots of cows, sheep, even a few chickens, and lots of butterflies, one of which Maria is energetically pursuing in the picture below.
