Just recently, a 6-yr-old said:
“Daddy, why in the English Mass
does the priest have his back
to Jesus the whole time?”
___ [Ex ore infantium… – Fr. Z]
Lord, you came to save sinners; enter into my life anew on this new day. Remove all fear that I have of you, Lord Jesus. Teach me that you are a God of compassion and that you are meek and humble of heart.
"My God, grant me the grace to love you as much as I possibly can." -- Ste Jean-Marie-Baptiste Vianney, Cure' d'Ars
Whose Choice?
WHAT?!? No POTTERY?!
They must not care
about the poor!
Catholics Come Home!

"In the spirit of collaborative ministry, should blogging lay ministers not also be using the wee small hours to visit the housebound? Come to that, what was St Thomas Aquinas doing, spending his time writing about essence and existence? The thirteenth century was a period of global warming - surely the Angelic Doctor should have been devoting his energies to saving the planet?"

The Evolution of the Popemobile
Lord, you know how easily I excuse
myself from meeting your demands
for my life. I do so even while
knowing that when I fulfill them I
always discover new strength,
hidden energy and untapped
resources of love within me. Help
me to give myself to you in love,
to meet your demands, and to
experience the power of grace
unleashed within me.
