Given the reputation San Francisco sometimes has, I often wonder what poor Saint Francis did to deserve association to it! Then again, what goes on in "L.A." is often no special tribute to El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Angeles del Río de Porciúncula!

Glad to see a rememberence.

This may be disturbing for some of our more rabid "Vostochniks"-a post-Schism Western Saint included in the image! Of course, I remember some years ago, while still living in NJ, seeing Archbishop Iakovos on a Greek Orthodox cable TV program speaking to a group of elderly folks in a nursing home. He was telling them that he liked the Roman Catholic devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, because it focused on the "Heart of God", and his great mercy! This is why I like the Greeks! There is less of a proccupation with "style over substance"!

In Christ,
Dn. Robert
