Hibernated

The title of the post says it all.  Had not posted in eight months.  A lot of adjustments to do.  Finally, I think I have settled in.  I stayed in a guest house for a month as it was difficult to get a house in this town.  I prayed hard and found an old house about 50 meters from St. Hippolyte church in the center of the town.

I learned later on, it is owned by the Josephite brothers who were running a school behind.  Was it a coincidence?  I am a long-time devotee of Saint Joseph.  Although the house needed a lot of work to make it habitable, I grabbed the opportunity.

The brothers agreed to deduct the renovation expenses from the rent.  I think this is where God wants me to stay.
Incidentally, today is also the feast day of Saint Joseph. 

Remember, O most chaste spouse of the Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who implored your help and sought your intercession were left unassisted.

Full of confidence in your power I fly unto you and beg your protection.

Despise not O Guardian of the Redeemer my humble supplication, but in your bounty, hear and answer me. Amen.


I hope to pick up from my quiet and peaceful state to write more...
