 The cause of the wife of Blessed Karl of Austria has been introduced
The cause of the wife of Blessed Karl of Austria has been introduced. Here is a prayer for the beatification of Zita of Bourbon-Parma which a friend sent me:
 God our Father, you redeemed the world by the  self-abasement of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. He who was King became the  Servant of all and gave his life as a ransom for many, therefore you have  exalted him.
God our Father, you redeemed the world by the  self-abasement of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. He who was King became the  Servant of all and gave his life as a ransom for many, therefore you have  exalted him.
We ask you that your servant Zita, Empress and Queen, will  be raised upon the altars of your Church. In her, you have given us a great  example of faith and hope in the face of trials, and of unshakeable trust in  your Divine Providence.
We beseech you that alongside her husband, the  Blessed Emperor Charles, Zita will become for couples a model of married love  and fidelity, and for families a guide in the ways of a truly Christian  upbringing. May she who in all circumstances opened her heart to the needs of  others, especially the poor and needy, be for us all an example of service and  love of neighbour.
Through her intercession, grant our petition (mention  here the graces you are asking for). Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

I was waiting for you to pick this up. Isn't it wonderful?
Yes, it is, Terry. I am very glad. I visited Zita's tomb in the Capuchin crypt in Vienna and it was a moving experience.
A great lady. Btw, I loved the way you weaved in Zita at the end of "Madame Royale."
