Darkest Before Dawn
by Sister Pat Farrell, Dec. 12, 2018
On this Feast of St. Lucy, whose name means Light - celebrated in the darkest days in the Northern Hemisphere, I've chosen this quote for those times we find ourselves in darkness, no matter the time of year or the hemisphere. We must believe it is darkest before the dawn of a new world. We will see it when we believe it. - Saul Alinsky
