Argentines Flock to Saint's Shrine
AP reports, "Delia Noris Lencina huddled for months on the sidewalk in wind and rain to be the first of tens of thousands of Argentines, many jobless, who flooded a shrine to the patron saint of work...But the crowds swelling outside the church of St. Cayetano on Thursday, the day marking the saint's annual celebration, bore witness that recovery is painfully slow...At the St. Cayetano shrine, women prayed and sang religious songs while hoping the saint would end the crisis." :: Submitted for your false christs (Matthew 24:4) files. :: There is power in prayer, but it all depends on who you pray to.
