As Shirley's email gathered us at the beach today, I decided to join the crowd for my last day of beach volleyball of the week. Since I was staying at Auntie Teresa's house, it took me 1.5 hours to go downtown. And I decided to go to St Stephen's Chapel for this very special day, the feast day of Santa Chiara.
Although I was late, I heard the most important part of the sermon.
"Let us ask St Clare to take away our anxiety, depression, anger and impurities from us. So that we get closer to God."
Those four things are totally in me lately.
The memories of Assisi came back instantly, that Santa Chiara was with me always. Everything that I read about her was similar to what I was taught. Her spirit towards God, her life, her calling, her faith, make me want to follow her.
