Chapter 269 My Lord Has Mercy
When she was an orphan, Jane didn't know what faith was. She was just taken to be baptized by her parents when she was a child, and then she prayed and attended Mass according to what her parents told her. She didn't know why she believed or why she attended Mass. She asked her parents,
Parents don't know why, because parents' parents also came here like this.

Like many people who don't know the meaning of their names, it's a habit that doesn't deserve much attention.

In the kingdom, even if there is a king who presides over the justice among nobles and lords, the conquests between the territories will always be constant, not to mention that barbarians and pagans often cause disasters on the borders of the kingdom.

Jane is orphaned in a war of unknown origin.

She wandered for a week, and in just seven days, she became thin and skinny, and was about to starve to death on the street. At that critical moment, the monastery accepted her and adopted her and other children into the monastery.

There, Jane finally had her fill, and she was saved.

That monastery is a nun's monastery that accepts only nuns. Jane learns and grows with other children there. Naturally, some of them are behind in their studies. They were adopted by farmers in church villages, and when they grew up, they settled down in church villages that lacked labor, and each had their own occupations.

And Jane likes to stay in the nunnery, she likes the church which is not tall but warm.

The convent church was unfinished when Jane was a child, and it certainly isn't now, and in many places building a church is a matter of generations.

During daily prayers and daily classes, the nuns who got up early and accumulated good deeds would bring the children to the church. Dozens of people bowed their heads in a proper manner, folded their hands, listened to the old priest's dull scriptures, and after the calm prayer , each sentence responded in unison.

Jane liked that feeling, she liked the unfinished church.

Because the construction is not finished, the roof of the church has not been sealed yet, and it is open. A large piece of morning light is sprinkled on the floor tiles of the church without any shelter. The piled up gray stones change from coldness to warmth in an instant. The holy statue, she saw that the latter seemed to be glowing from the inside out, and the place made of wood on the holy statue was glowing with a refreshing warm color.

As time passed through the cracks of her fingertips, Jane gradually grew up. She was left in the nun's house because of her excellent academic performance and devout worship of the gods.

At this time, Jane was already able to assist the old priest in various ceremonies with ease, and the ceremonial standards were correct, and her hands and feet were also extremely nimble.

She acts swiftly and cautiously.

Naturally, Jane would help the old priest to baptize the newborn baby. At that time, the old priest of the monastery would take out a thick church register, which was full of the Christian names given to the newborn baby.

Each name on the teaching list will have its meaning marked in a line of small characters.

Jane has seen the names in the church list several times, but she is not curious about it, let alone pays much attention to it, as if her parents don’t know why they want to believe in the Lord, and the church list is a kind that does not deserve too much attention Get used to it.

However, one time,
A couple came, their children were thumping and crying, unwilling to be baptized.

Jane, who has always acted quickly and cautiously, happened to be this time, when she hurried forward to appease the children, she accidentally knocked off the roster in the hands of the old priest.

What's more unfortunate is that when the roster fell to the ground, it was opened to 146 pages.

But at exactly this moment, the cloud and mist parted, and a ray of light shot down from the huge uncapped hole in the church.

Jane didn't pay attention to that page at first, she hurriedly apologized to the old priest, bent down to pick up the church roll, thinking in her heart to quickly pick up the church roll and close it, the baptism is over.

Unfortunately, she glanced at the teaching roster, and this inadvertent glance became a glimpse in her future memories in an instant.

Because on page 146 of that book, her name was written on the first line.

[Jane: My Lord has mercy. 】

In a lifetime, from other people's mouths or from his own mouth, how many times a person will hear his own name, this is like a vast universe, perhaps no one can tell clearly except God.

In those address after address, the name has become a simple symbol, and it has become a habit that does not deserve too much attention.

"My Lord have mercy."

Jane froze in place suddenly, and memories of the past flooded into her heart.

She lost her parents due to the war, and when she was about to starve to death, the monastery saved her, allowing her to grow up in an uncapped church, receive education, attend mass day after day, and finally become a nun with the warm life she has today.

Why do I have everything I have today?
Because the church shoulders the mission of helping the poor.

Because of the quoted scripture: "The Lord has given us life, so we must not disregard the life of others, for that is also given by the Lord." 】

More because.
My Lord have mercy.

Jane saw the meaning of her name.

It was like Mu Ran, who had been away from her hometown for a long time, looked back. Looking at the familiar name, she suddenly shed tears.

She firmly believed that this was a revelation from God, and that the Lord's monastery saved her from suffering. Now that she saw this passage again, the Lord must have entrusted her with some mission.

When that day comes, you must not be afraid of the road ahead, let alone shirk your lack of strength.

After that day, Jane devoted herself to studying theology in the church and comprehending the mysteries of heaven.

In the second year, relying on her theological attainments, she received a letter of recommendation from the Vice-President to the Pope. In the letter, the Vice-President requested the Pope to promote Jane to the clergy, allowing her to serve as the head nun.

The position of the abbot of a monastery is an honorary position, usually concurrently held by the contemporary pope, so the pope is also called the head of the monastery, and the post of vice-president is the real power position of the monastery.

As for the Superior Sisters, they can be considered as Preparatory Vice-Presidents.

Jane learned that the vice-principal planned to hand over the monastery to herself, and she did not refuse. After the Pope's reply came, she was promoted to the Holy Order, and took over the position of head nun devoutly and humbly.

In the following years, Jane completed her two wandering missionary trips.

These two rounds of traveling sermons took place at the age of 19 and 31 respectively, and the duration of both rounds was seven years.

Right now, Jane is 47 years old, and the vice-principal is nearly [-]. The latter often takes time out of his daily classes to go to the village to see how long it will take for his coffin to be completed.

In this year, Jane proposed to travel for the third time.

The vice president readily agreed.

They understood each other tacitly that the vice president's days were numbered and she was about to receive the grace of the Lord.
