Kayte Postle Posted June 1, 2012 Author Share Posted June 1, 2012 Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Thanks everyone. I finished filling out their helping hands form, now to just hear from them!! ( although i'm leaving to go visit mickey mouse and my sister this week, so I'll have to wait a whole week to reply to them......) I'm am so overjoyed. I've been home from school for almost a month now, and summer had been seriously kicking my toosh. However since the retreat last weekend, this week has been so full of blessings and graces, and they just keep coming. (a lot of them are coming from Momma Mary.) Praise to the Lord and the Holy Spirit!! Hail Mary full of grace. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
