Bicentenary

26 July 1860                                  

Fr. Palau once again addresses this letter to Juana Gratias.
He has achieved the desired freedom after six years of confinement. He considers slowly and with calmness the way to use his freedom… He will look, consult and examine the course he must undertake.

You…in only one thing you can help me, and that is to pray with insistence to God and to his mother, asking to direct us wherever his divine majesty pleases. Your vocation and divine disposition are joined to my wagon, and you have nothing else to do except to follow me.

Trust and confidence in God is central to Fr. Palau: He will not leave us without light and guidance, since we are quite well to favour the designs of God.

And he closes the letter with a sparkle of humour: Today that widow of the Blessed Trinity came to talk to me and I am filled and satiated of the Trinity.
