A note sent by the Poor Clare Colettines:
Dear Little Hearts,
If you go to- and type in- The Chaplet of St. Colette Y Tube you will find a video posted yesterday of the Blessing of St. Coletts blessing in our chapel. You may just find the first edition which was removed there is a live one there, we hope you enjoy it, lovingly all your sisters…
Saturday February 4 2012 was a bitterly cold day with sub-zero temperatures and black ice on the roads here in North Wales. Those who came to the Mass and blessing of St. Colette were either local enough to walk or suicidal enthusiasts!
We could have re-filmed the blessing with an invited audience and a packed chapel on a road-worthy day, but this, in its simplicity, is what the Lord gave us, and – as God pleases as God wills!
Mother is blessing those present with two threads from the mantle of St. Colette given to us by our Sisters at Bruges. They are mounted on a decorated Poor Clare veil. The Community is singing the Colette Chaplet.
