Collection: Our Lady of La Salette

ARTIST: Br. Mickey McGrath, OSFS

ARTWORK NARRATIVE:

Going through my file to find an appropriate picture, I rediscovered this image of Our Lady of La Salette which I did several years ago following an afternoon presentation at her shrine in Massachusetts. Because of her tears, her flowered headpiece, and the colors, I decided hers was the perfect image to post as we continue to pray for peace and an end to sorrow in Ukraine.
–Br. Mickey McGrath, OSFS

Her feast day is Sept 19.
