WRONG CHOICE OF SAINT

Posted by william on Jan 4th, 2009

My nephew’s daughter just graduated from university and is going to spend a year in Peru working in an orphanage as Christian service. I wrote her that I have a devotion to St. Teresa of the Andes from that part of the world, and that she might try to learn a bit more about her while she was in the region. I think Teresa de los Andes actually was from Chile, though, and I should have mentioned St. Rose of Lima instead, although she is not so much of the modern age as was Teresa, and probably less likely to inspire my lovely relative, far from home.
