Today is our Fifth Year Anniversary here at AirMaria since our official start on the Feast of the Annunciation in 2007.
We look forward to many more years of spreading Franciscan, Marian, Catholic teaching and devotion. We will be giving an update of AirMaria events and future plans after Easter.
Thank you for all the help to make it all possible.
Deo Gratias!!

Ave Maria!
We are out of power here at Air Maria after hurricane Irene came through and knocked out power to about half the residents in the state of Connecticut. Our town of Griswold and the surrounding towns have 100% power loss and it could be a full week before it is restored. No definitive estimate has been given.
In the meantime, we are trying to find power whenever we can, using inverters to get power from our cars. We may get tomorrows homily up but there will be none from today and yesterday. All other posting will be reduced as well.
We do have good sized generator and even got it running the night before in a fevered, pitch battle against time, but in the morning when the power went out, the generator started up but the switch gear failed to hook into the generator. So now we are waiting to get an electrician but these, of course, are hard to find when they are so busy restoring power. Our friary only has two days of stored water so hopefully we will back on line soon. Keep us in your prayers. You will be in ours.
Ave Maria!
