This place is very significant for me. In 2005, I lost my backpack including my laptop in one of the train stations in Sydney. It was a Saturday in the middle of Australian winter. I just flew in from Auckland. I met my friend and later in the train, I realized one of my packs were missing. The next day, Sunday, we went to a solemn mass at 10:30am here at St. Marys. I prayed and found peace. Two months later and many stories to tell, my pack and laptop found its way back. During my trip to Melbuorne two years ago, I passed by and picked them up. My friend Olive and James who live in Wooloomoloo just 3 blocks from St. Mary's help me through and through.And last week during my trip to the islands, I had to stop by and pay my respects to one of my most favorite places on earth. God is good indeed .

Day, I remember your backpack. Miraculous talaga iyon! Memorable din sa akin ang St. Mary's. I arrived in Sydney on Christmas Day, & there were no masses anymore in the churches near my sister's place. She had to drive me to the cathedral for the 6 pm mass. I also love walking around that area, with the park & the museum nearby. I'll be visiting again in November! Ingat, sis.
Hi Ella,
Talaga! indeed it was a miracle that I will always be thankful for. I felt that the hand of the Divine heard me, helped me and gave me peace...sobra! A manifestation of His love indeed.
Thank you sis for your prayers. I know that there were many people (you know who you are) that prayed with me at that time... my sincere thank you goes out to all of you!
labs,
Day
Wow! That is incredible! You are indeed very lucky to have gotten the backpack back, Daisy!
