Today is the feast day of Saint Mary MacKillop. I wanted to do a special post, but having blogged about her just recently, I was struggling a little for fresh words. Then I realised that the best words were those of Mary herself. She was a really inspirational lady and many of the things she said are still quoted today.
So, to mark the feast day, a found poem made from Mary’s words:
A Note for Fellow Travellers
Never see a need
without doing something about it.
Remember we are but travellers here,
We must teach more by example than by word.
Do all you can with the means at your disposal
and calmly leave the rest to God.
To mark this special day, the Mary MacKillop Foundation has a special ‘Give Five for Mary’ campaign. You can donate here.

You are welcome, Sarah. Thank you and the foundation for the work you do.
