March 25: The Feast of the Annunciation



The Annunciation by Henry Ossawa Tanner



In some parts of the world it is customary to celebrate this feast day by eating waffles. 

Waffles?

If ever there were a day set aside to celebrate the courage of a young girl who did not waffle when called by God to do the extraordinary, today is it. 

We celebrated with angel food cake and the Magnificat.  We also added a package of diapers to our Lenten alms basket in a small effort to help some other young mother. 

We need to be angels for each other.
