July 29, 1819 ~ Philippine writes to Madeleine Sophie Barat: "The dear Lord has favored us with a share of His Cross. The greatest, and certainly the hardest to bear, is lack of success in our work here at St. Charles. If a saint had been in charge, all would have gone well. That thought makes the burden of my office as Superior all the heavier. Every day I see more clearly that I do not possess the qualities necessary in a Superior."
