scandals that had infected that area.

He cited all the canons that forbade giving laymen ecclesiascal dignies, but he was overruled. Turibius was ordained priest and bishop and sent to Peru, where he found colonialism at its worst. The Spanish conquerors were guilty of every sort of oppression of the nave populaon. Abuses among the clergy were flagrant, and he devoted his energies and suffering to this area first.

He began the long and arduous visitaon of an immense Archdiocese, studying the language, staying two or three days in each place, o en with neither bed nor food. Turibius confessed every morning to his chaplain, and celebrated Mass with intense fervor. Among those to whom he gave the Sacrament of Confirmaon was the future Saint Rose of Lima, and possibly the future Saint Marn de Porres. A er 1590, he had the help of another great missionary, Francis Solanus, now also a saint. Though very poor, his people were sensive, dreading to accept public charity from others. Turibius solved the problem by helping them anonymously. God gave him the gi of loving others as they needed it.

Grant me wisdom as I ask (menon your requests here). Generous and loving God, like your daughter Mary, help me to know and do your will in this life and in the next. Grant me a grateful heart and help me to always pray as Mary prayed: My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God my Savior for He has looked with favor on his lowly servant. From this day all generaons will call me blessed: the Almighty has done great things for me, and holy is His Name. He has mercy on those who fear Him in every generaon. He has shown the strength of His arm, He has scaered the proud in their conceit. He has cast down the mighty from their thrones, and has li ed up the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich He has sent away empty. He has come to the help of his servant Israel for He has remembered His promise of mercy, the promise He made to our fathers, to Abraham and His children for ever.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

We then solicited bids and have Jesus as your Son, esmated that building the Chapel would cost approximately $250,000.

Our intent, if the Chapel is approved and supported by our faith Rosary Reciters are community, would then be to form a 24Rhour Perpetual Eucharisc Adoraon Ministry asked to show up 30 once the Chapel is constructed. The type of tabernacle that would be used in the Chapel minutes prior to the would be like what the Cloisters on the Plae and the St. Benedict Center in Schuyler use weekend Masses to where the Adorer can open the tabernacle door to expose the Blessed Sacrament which recite the rosary.
