Holy Card

I love finding old holy cards in books. Back at the time of this post I gave one away too quickly and then received another claim via email. So I'm not going to make that mistake again.

In the smaller Latin edition of Bonaventure's Mystical Opuscula (Quracchi, 1926) I found a souvenir card from the ordination and first Mass of a Father John M. Quirk, on the first and third of May, 1942, respectively.

So, should there be any family, friends, or confreres who would like me to send it along, leave a comment (which I won't publish) with an address. Or perhaps you are still with us yourself, Father!

Post a Comment

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.

I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.

If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
