St Mary of the Cross MacKillop

Colossians 3:12-17; Ps 32; Matthew 6:25-34

Go to Joseph

Mary of the Cross (Mary MacKillop) wrote many letters to her sisters – the Sisters of St Joseph. Some extracts: God wants us by every means in our power to lead others to life. Find happiness in making others happy. God provides daily for us all. I seem in my prayer to be finding so many corners in my own heart for one place after another, and one person after another. Have courage, no matter what your crosses are. Always be generous with God, God loves generosity. Draw from, draw on, the wisdom of this Saint.
