  4. The celebration was amazing. We recited the Rosary at 5 o’clock tonight it will be at 7. Kim thank you for sharing the photos you took. Can’t wait to see the Documentary when it’s finished . You are amazing.

    1. Thank you Pat. You and your family are amazing–the preparations and celebrations are Beautiful in Every Way Imaginable. I am blessed to be invited to participate.

      These photos were posted hurriedly and I have additional snapshots of the bista and bread making–will post those tomorrow–a beautiful one of you and your sister.

  5. Do you know of any altars where they share a meal for a donation to the poor? I live in NH and am from New Orleans where the altars are primarily food. Thanks
