Why 1,575 haikus? Because my darlingest Annelies Marie Frank lived 15.75 years in this world.

Gathering Shepherds


Grant us holy priests,
O LORD, send them forth like wind
to renew Thy Church.

Gathering shepherds,
servants after thy own heart,
O LORD, deign to bless.

O Spirit,
let us pray.
---<--@
Saint John Vianney, pray for us.

Renew our parishes, O my Jesus - advance the cause of Thy Christian communities!

Make us strong in Thy Spirit, O God of all good things, to love and serve Thy beloved poor and bring to them through a life of living service to our nation through Thy Church, the grace of Thy most blessed peace.
