“Let God arise, and let His enemies be scattered. O Lord, Thou wilt save the humble, and wilt bring down the eyes of the proud.”

Donald R. McClarey
Cradle Catholic. Active in the pro-life movement since 1973. Father of three, one in Heaven, and happily married for 43 years. Small town lawyer and amateur historian. Former president of the board of directors of the local crisis pregnancy center for a decade.
I was just reading about him. One of the founders of the Trinitarian order, which used to ransom Christian captives and slaves. Interesting stuff.
Great saint. Have an icon of him in my classroom.
