Chapter Meeting for September
Last year, the Little Sisters were praying for the people and animals caught in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. This year, we encourage visitors to the Virtual Mother House to read about the jazz funeral for lost pets in the New Orleans Area, and to find some way to support your Humane Society efforts to rescue animals after natural disasters.

Celebrate Sts. Giles, Nicholas and Guy of Anderlecht this month!
These three humble saints have special associations with horned animals and livestock. St. Nicholas of Tolentino, most tender-hearted of the three, was a vegetarian.

We've got a great recipe for St. Nicholas' bread over at the Refectory. Click the link at the upper right.

Also, please check out our Prayer Room to find a prayer to this month's Animal Friends in Heaven and to see or leave special prayer requests.

Please leave your prayer requests in the "comments" box. You'll need to type in a random word before posting so that the blog isn't inundated with adverts for penis enlargements, homemade methamphetamine and cheap Viagra, none of which is needed by the Sisters at this time.
