O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood, as to understand; to be loved as to love; for it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.' --Prayer of St. Francis of Assissi (front) 'O, Mary, my Mother, assist me in the service of Thy Divine Son.'
