St Elizabeth of the Trinity (Letter 122):
“Let us live with God as with a friend, let us make our faith a living faith in order to be in communion with Him through everything, for that is what makes saints.”

Feels like a gathering of lovely people under blue skies so here’s a quote from Teresa of Jesus which I hope will characterise this space -
‘All must be friends, all must be loved, all must be held dear, all must be helped. (WP4:7)

We deactivated our account at the other place 11 months ago, because we could no longer in good conscience be part of a platform which promoted ‘freedom of speech’ over truth & accountability. It’s good to now see so many friends, old & new, here 😊🙏 #NunsofBlueSky
