I carried your name proudly on my bow.
I brought your friends and forebears to new lives in America.
I'm the fastest ocean liner that ever lived.
I'm the true Icon of the Seas.
I am the SS United States, your namesake.
Yet you scuttled me.

Welp She went down still holding the Blue Riband, probably the last ship to ever do so. RIP SS United States.

Please keep my parish priest, Fr. Nicholas, in your prayers. He was rushed to the hospital last night.

My brother in law once remarked that God seems to send saints to a people that run counter to their bad tendencies.
For example: Slavs can be very somber and self-serious, so He sends them many fools for Christ. Greeks can be a bit lax and lazy, so He sends them a lot of strict ascetics.
For America, our generalized vice is probably being weird and neurotically self-centered. St Olga, by comparison, lived a quiet life of service, compassion, and endless hours of knitting clothes for others. The site for the OCA Archdiocese of Canada describes her as “one who lives in harmony with others, serves quietly, and carries warmth into the lives of those around her,” and that she “spoke little but listened much.”
St Olga, pray for us
