Dear
friends, if you have time, please pray for these members of the Southern family
on the day they reposed. Many thanks.

Appomattox
Day
If
you have time, please pray for the South on April 9th, Appomattox

Do some fasting as well if you can:
The Holy Fathers tell us and show us over and over again that humility
attracts the Grace of God.

excellent 20th century defender of the South and an excellent writer

wealthy Spanish civil servant who lived in New Orleans during Spanish rule of
Louisiana. He gave very generously to

Holy
Ælfred the Great, King of England, South Patron, pray for us sinners at the Souð, unworthy though we are!
Anathema
to the Union!
