Word and Songs | Getting to know Venerable Thecla Merlo - a woman of Great Faith &amp; Unwavering Hope with Sr. Lines Salazar, fsp Happy month of love to each one of us!  In this episode of Word and Songs, join us Daughters of St. Paul in praise and thanksgiving to God/ as we commemorate the 58th death anniversary of Venerable Thecla Merlo, the first Superior General of the Pious Society of the Daughters of St. Paul.  Her ultimate desire to become a saint determines the program of her life, how she would live it until the end.  She was described by Fr. Silvano Gratilli, ssp in one of his writings, as a strong-willed, energetic, wise, and ardent woman… precisely because she knew how to “die in Christ”/ so as to live with Him and thus become a messenger of life.  Prima Maestra once said: “When our hearts are filled with the love of God, we cannot help/ but pour this love out on the world.”  I’m Sr. Lines of the Daughters of St. Paul inviting you to join me for half an hour, as we get to know Venerable Thecla Merlo - her thoughts, virtues, and values worth emulating so as to become a saint. Her life was a song of God’s love. A love so immense to the point of exclaiming, “If I had a hundred lives, O Lord, I would give all to you.”
