“The Gift of Knowledge is the Light of the Holy Spirit” St. Katharine Drexel

During this Advent Season in our prayers may we remember “families” living with so many difficulties.
Our Children in particular are very vulnerable in all aspects of their lives. 

CRC is an international treaty that aims to protect the rights of children worldwide. … CRC entered into force in September 1990, and has been ratified by 195 countries, making it the most widely ratified human rights treaty in the world. Two countries, the United States and Somalia, have not ratified the Convention.May 7, 2021

Laws, rules, regulations, degrees…  do not bring Justice and Protection without the will and determination of each of us. May the prayer of Saint Francis be our prayer :  Lord   make me an instrument of your peace:  where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;  where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;  where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
