John Allen Green Sunday 31st December, 2017 Dearest family, friends, brothers and sisters, prayer partners and associates, Wishing you all the peace and goodness of the light that has come into the world during this Christmas and every blessing for peace in the New Year. My dear sister Alta sold the premises in Ferndale and I will sadly be leaving my little hermitage in this coming week. A new Hermitage is being provided by my brother Kenneth and his wife Susan in Mayersdal, Alberton, with occupation from 1st February 2018. In the interim I will be staying with family and friends in Glenvista, Johannesburg which is in close proximity to the more Mulbarton hospital. Thanks to the intercession of our Lady of Guadalupe I have been free from pain since her feast day and have been given the strength and mobility needed to undertake this move. In all things we thank and praise you O Lord! The congenital heart failure and COPD are quite stable with the use of alternative natural medicines in the form of Cannabis Sativa THC/CBD Extract. Conventional medication and treatments had horrific side effects that were almost as bad as the chronic illnesses themselves. My blood pressure can drop quite drastically leading to confusion which aggravates what the doctors refer to as “foggy brain”. The osteoarthritis is of course always in the background as a reminder of younger days when I thought myself invincible. The operations to remove the cataracts in the eyes with new lenses was an amazing success and I continue to wonder at the beautiful colours that has returned with my new vision. Thanks to the support of the Knights of da Gama, the web page for spirituality, gospel reflections and Sunday homilies over the last five years has been supplemented by pod casts through Spreaker and You-tube over this last year. A big thank you also to those who have sent me comments or critique on my work; this is always greatly appreciated. As a hermit I continue with the daily Gregorian masses said for the South African OFM province and for the intentions of family, friends, benefactors and my associates, the Order of Franciscan Hermits. Thank you to my Franciscan brothers in Boksburg and around the country, friends from St Pius X in Pretoria, Regina Pacis in Ladysmith and the Knights of da Gama who continue to support my work, correspond and visit; you are always in my prayers with gratitude. My two little companions, Lily and Mojo will continue to travel with me through these moves and are both well although they are now missing the pack of five dogs that I cared for and who would accompany me on my daily walks along with the gardeners’ baby son Jason. With all my love and blessings, your little brother John Allen ofm Susie Smith My poor prayers as always, Brother, especially for blessings, graces & renewed strength in 2018🙏🏻❤️ Dorothy Breslin Ofs World peace and unity Albert Cioffoletti Offering a 'special prayer' of thanksgiving for BrotherPaul Ofh ,,, may the Holy Spirit give him strength & courage in his service Albert Cioffoletti May the Holy Spirit bless and strengthen my Franciscan brothers & sisters as they labor in the Lord's vineyard Albert Cioffoletti Praying that God will heal my friend, Dusty and all who are afflicted with cancer Ray Warner Praying for Dusty and all those with cancer.

Joy Marzynski 💕🙏 continued prayer for sanctity, growth in holiness, humility, gentleness, meekness, forgiveness of others, spiritual joy, and above all charity, and deepening of spirituality and our relationship with Jesus for all of us. On this day, we commemorate the memorial of St. Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury who was murdered for not giving in to the evils of his time. Initially, he had considered compromise, but then fled to France to escape certain martyrdom; however, even knowing it would mean certain death, he struggled against that decision, returning to face what he must. May we all have the courage to do so. It is said that every saint must struggle to arrive at sanctity, particularly against self. We are all capable of lying to ourselves. Come, Holy Spirit, and remove our spiritual blindness. Help us to struggle against ourselves, that we, too, may arrive at sanctity. We must also, however, enter into that struggle for the right reason, namely, the Honor and Glory of God and not our own personal glory. Today, Lord, I thank You for the many examples of this struggle and sanctity set before us through the saints in their numerous charisms. Help me to do what I must in my own struggle, removing any blindness and lies I may stumble over along the way, my way to Calvary. All for the Love and Glory of God! Fiat. Susie Smith Thank you Joy for those inspiring words, St Thomas of Canterbury has always been a favourite St since childhood.....so often visited the Martydom....🙏🏻❤️ Rogervic Mattal .......Praying for those affected by the added stress of extreme cold.......
