The Call to Patience

10 minutes ago
1 min read

We continue to investigate the restoration of OCDS groups in Birmingham and Wolverhampton and we have some contacts who are interested - but not quite enough to launch.  I tend to think that four or five persons are a basic minimum if a new group is to be established.  This work requires great patience!  Venues have been offered and are available as of now, but of course it is all in God’s hands.  These are God’s groups and it is God’s work.  ‘Everything is Grace’ said our Therese of Lisieux.   We are receiving increasing numbers of inquiries about the Seculars through the website, they are coming in every other day.  Deo Gratia!
