The Czestochowa Icon arrived on Tuesday of Holy Week, April 15th, at Brampton, the Canadian province of Ontario, northwest of Toronto. It was a long trip from Omaha through Nebraska - about fifteen hours long, but Our Blessed Mother's escort decided that it would be worthwhile to use a few "days off" during the Holy Week to make it possible for the Polish community of Toronto to meet Our Lady of Czestochowa.
