36) A Mass for Leigh-Ann - 22nd November

At 8:00 pm in Spain, 11:00 am in Canada, 12:00 midday in the UK and midday (the next day) in Perth Australia, a Mass was held for Leigh-Ann at the Church of the Saviour (Iglesia El Salvador) in the centre of Nerja, Spain.

It was organised by our landlord and friend, Pablo Casanova Acosta and his beautiful partner, Carolina.

Hearing that the event was taking place was a complete shock and surprise.

When we received the photograph of all of our friends that gave up their time to be together and pray for Leigh-Ann we were amazed by the number that attended. It was a truly selfless and compassionate act from everyone.

We both want to thank everyone for being there. 

I have special thanks also because I know first hand what a difference it has made to Leigh-Ann since it took place. She will not recover from her illness, of course, but since 11:00 am yesterday she has been brighter and happier than she has been for many days.

Pablo and Carolina, thank you so much for arranging that amazing event. It was humbling.
