Would you rather have dinner with St. Peter or St. John the Baptist and why?
This is Estelle and it's a tough one for me, so I'd like to see your reasons why for each and then decide:)
Mark 3:7-12
Jesus withdrew toward the sea with his disciples.
A large number of people followed from Galilee and from Judea.
Hearing what he was doing,
a large number of people came to him also from Jerusalem,
from Idumea, from beyond the Jordan,
and from the neighborhood of Tyre and Sidon.
He told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd,
so that they would not crush him.
He had cured many and, as a result, those who had diseases
were pressing upon him to touch him.
And whenever unclean spirits saw him they would fall down before him
and shout, “You are the Son of God.”
He warned them sternly not to make him known.
It happened that there was a man full of leprosy in one of the towns where Jesus was;
and when he saw Jesus,
he fell prostrate, pleaded with him, and said,
“Lord, if you wish, you can make me clean.”
Jesus stretched out his hand, touched him, and said,
“I do will it. Be made clean.”
And the leprosy left him immediately.
Then he ordered him not to tell anyone, but
“Go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing
what Moses prescribed; that will be proof for them.”
The report about him spread all the more,
and great crowds assembled to listen to him
and to be cured of their ailments,
but he would withdraw to deserted places to pray. Luke 5:12-16
Keith, can you point me in the right direction for the video of you interviewing Gabi on the rosary and how to increase the number of daily rosaries for a deeper spirituality? I saw it several years ago and can’t find it now. I wanted to share it with some friends. That video made a huge impact on my daily rosaries. I was having difficulty getting one in each day at the time. I am watching the one on Our Lady of Guadalupe with you both but pretty sure that isn’t the right one either. Nor is the interview in your home the correct one.
Were you named after anyone or what is the meaning behind your name?
This is Estelle, I'll go first. I am named after my mom. My middle name is after my dad's mom, Frances. I hated my name when I was growing up because everyone said that it sounded like an old lady's name. As I got older and understood how meaningful my name was (both first and middle), I started to love it. My mom was one of the nicest people you'd ever meet, and my dad's mom was so very sweet, so to carry their name is an honor:)
Also, Estelle means star. That's pretty cool too:)
