In the wake of my recent post offering glimmer’s of English hope, I thought I’d share this letter published in the Naples Daily News this week. It shows the prayerful and silent witness of Ave Maria University students on the beach in Florida. Such students are indeed the future of the Faith in the United States. Deo gratias!
From the Naples Daily News, letter to the editor:
“Hopeful”
To the Editor of the Daily News:
We were at Lowdermilk Beach pavilion last Saturday. Around 6 p.m., a group of about 15 young adults came in carrying many boxes of pizza. Before they ate, they all bowed their heads, said a silent prayer and made the sign of the cross. What a wonderful thing we witnessed! We asked them where they were from, and they replied, Ave Maria University.
We are not of the Catholic faith, but it gave us such joy to see these young people acknowledging the Lord before they ate.
God bless them; they are our hope for the future.
Bea and George Chionis

The News was founded in 1846 by Charles Dickens, who also served as the newspaper’s first editor. It was conceived as a radical rival to the right-wing Morning Chronicle. The paper was not a commercial success.[url=http://rajamanickam.com/]SEO Professional[/url]
One of the early newspapers of the Western Australian colony was The Inquirer, established by Francis Lochee and William Tanner on 5 August 1840. Lochee became sole proprietor and editor in 1843 until May 1847 when he sold the operation to the paper’s former compositor Edmund Stirling.[url=http://square-peg-web.net/]Square Peg Web[/url]
