Feast of St. Ignatius of Loyola

To celebrate the great feast of St. Ignatius, the keeper read a book by a Franciscan, went to church at St. Jerome where the preaching was pretty good this time, and recalled St. Francis Xavier, SJ and his trips to Asia by ordering excellent takeout at the Lucky Dragon Restaurant--Chicken Chow Yuk.  It was very tasty, with fresh vegetables, and no MSG!  She says that in 15 years she has never eaten there.  She just never thought about Chinese at the beach.  But the local paper did a nice review about Liun Chen who had been a bicycle assembler in China before he arrived in the US with his wife, Yanyao.  They bought the restaurant 12 years ago.  The lady in the photo is Sammi who is a sister in law.  The son Ben manages the Lucky Dragon and waited on the keeper.  It seemed a fitting way to honor the Jesuits and their mission as well as a repaired bicycle!
