Dear friends,

Happy Feast of the birth of Our Lady! Many people have been contacting me, excited that the Ulma Family will be beatified this weekend! What a grace and blessing for our family and for the whole world! 

Thank you for the prayers both in the past and present. They have continued to sustain us. Thank you also for sending me emails about the way that Ian's suffering and death, and our own suffering, have helped you in big and little ways. It is our prayer in our rosary every night; that fruit would come from this suffering, and it is always such a gift to get to see, this side of heaven, when it has been. 

Some writing from Ian that National Affairs archives recently re-sent out is attached as a picture. Read more on their website.

A beautiful video our dear Polish friend, Paulina, did on the Ulma Family. https://www.oursundayvisitor.com/watch-this-stunning-mini-documentary-on-the-ulma-family/

Lastly, the kids and I are doing alright. Our family is broken without dad here on this earth with us, and we know it won't be made whole until we are all in heaven, God-willing, together again one day. But God has been so good and merciful to us in our suffering. We have found a way to walk forward in Our Lord and His mercy, until we can all be made whole one day. 

In Christ's Most Sacred Heart,

Kelly
