OUR LADY OF PERPETUAL HELP

 

Which is the key word: “Help”,

“Perpetual” or “Our”? All 3 words,

if chewed on,  have nourishment.

Even the word “Our” has grab.

I like “help” the most.  “Help!”


We Redemptorists have been

perpetual in pushing this Ikon.

I’m pushing it here. Give it

some study and prayer till

you too get its message. Amen.
