<strong>All</strong> You Holy Men and Women, Pray for Us Amy Chabot<br />
Last week, I invited you to refl ect on the lives <strong>of</strong> your favorite saints in<br />
preparation for the feast <strong>of</strong> <strong>All</strong> <strong>Saints</strong>. This week, I would like to highlight<br />
one <strong>of</strong> my favorite Blesseds: Blessed Elizabeth <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Trinity. Elizabeth <strong>of</strong> the Trinity was a Carmelite nun<br />
in Dijon, France around the same time as Therese <strong>of</strong><br />
Lisieux. She was known for her devotion to the indwelling<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Trinity. <strong>In</strong> fact she composed a beautiful<br />
prayer to the Trinity which begins with these<br />
words: “O my God, Trinity whom I adore, help me<br />
to become utterly forgetful <strong>of</strong> myself so that I may<br />
establish myself in you, as changeless and calm as<br />
though my soul were already in eternity. Let nothing disturb my peace<br />
nor draw me forth from you, O my unchanging God, but at every moment<br />
may I penetrate more deeply into the depths <strong>of</strong> your mystery. Give<br />
peace to my soul; make it your heaven, your cherished dwelling-place<br />
and the place <strong>of</strong> your repose. Let me never leave you there alone, but<br />
keep me there, wholly attentive, wholly alert in my faith, wholly adoring<br />
and fully given up to your creative action.” Blessed Elizabeth’s feast day<br />
is November 8.<br />
