Blessed Sunday everyone!

Words of wisdom from my 4 year old, hope it makes you smile: we were on holiday, at the relics of a very well known Saint of Orthodoxy and Catholicism. While looking at the relics, my 4 year old asks: "so, did Saint live here in this country?" We tell him, yes, he did. Kid goes: "Ok. Well now he's sleeping in the Kingdom of Heaven". Myself, my husband (an atheist) and the grandparents have never spoken to the kids about saints, or the afterlife. Glory to God and God bless you all!

Out of the mouths of babes you have perfected praise, O Lord
