Can there be a more fitting pursuit in youth or a more valuable possession in old age than a knowledge of Holy Scripture? In the midst of storms, it will preserve you from the dangers of shipwreck and guide you to the shore of an enchanting paradise and the ever-lasting bliss of the angels.
--St. Boniface

My grandmother was a regular at St. Boniface church in The City until she lost her mobility, even though she lived a block from St. Paul’s in Noe Valley, but I know very little of this saint, This is a beautiful quote and image. We have these verses on our refrigerator to see and be reminded of every day. Thank you for this lovely post.
