You have been blessed to have had such a wonderful mother and your mother was blessed to have you for a son. It seems she realized you had the ability to spread the Word and touch minds, hearts, and souls. She may not have realized, though, that through your words you have touched people around the world.
Thank you for helping me, and others, to now have a much greater understanding of All Saints Day.

Obilor, thank you for authoring these reflections each Sunday. I am touched by this tribute to your mother. You obviously loved her very much. You are a young man; she could not have been very old. This is a beautiful way to stay connected. Thanks be to God.

Those people in our lives that do ordinary things with joy and thanksgiving!

A true modern day Saint! Amazing what influence our Saints have on us…just their presence and works…God given and bestowed upon us. Blessed are we!

I pray He continue to bless you with this gift of understanding and teaching . I thank God for your mother also for her encouragement to you for priesthood . I will keep her in my prayers. Thank you for reminding me I don’t have to do great things to be a saint . Even the smallest act done in love can be a way to sainthood.
