Golden years of life for a Christian loving their Holy Church. The procession is where Angels are walking along with people. It would unwise to pass such a Celebration of Faith and Miracle on Earth\u2026 There must be at least 300,000 of us! Once again: call everyone!!! \u00a0These are not empty words&#8230; This is no ad. This is a call to everyone who sees this post: make an effort, my dear, call everyone you can!! There\u2019s 10 days left\u2026.
