St. Camillus de Lellis
Dear Family of Mary!
Our Lady tells us:
October 3, 1985 “Dear children! I wish to tell you to thank God for all the graces which God has given you. For all the fruits thank the Lord and glorify him! Dear children, learn to give thanks in little things and then you will be able to give thanks also for the big things. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
Let’s make this day into a day of giving thanks!! Let’s pray this Litany of Gratitude, and spend time thanking the Lord for everything we can think of!! This is a way to strengthen our faith, and to make God happy!!
