We Have a Publisher! CONVERSION DIARY - May 22, 2013 ... Pope's publisher ? The house that puts out all those works of theology that make you feel like you didn't know anything about anything until you read this book? They're publishing you ? All I can say is: I KNOW! Our bookshelves are about half full with Ignatius books, and I'm still having a hard time believing that mine will one day be among them. Let's see, we have: A Brief Catechesis on Nature and Grace by Henri de Lubac A Refutation of Moral Relativism by Dr. Peter Kreeft Scandal of the ...http://www.conversiondiary.com/2013/05/we-have-a-publisher.html
Jake Genesis... A Penitent's Story. ABBEY-ROADS - May 15, 2013 ... actors in pornography are victims to varying degrees. The very young, the economically destitute, and the uneducated are victimized to a higher degree than men like me who made a more conscious choice, but everyone is harmed deeply by the experience and no one escapes the knife that cuts deeply the innate dignity of the human person. One thing that I am grateful that I never did was to recruit someone into doing porn. There are "agents" who make a lot of money doing this. I want to speak for a ...http://abbey-roads.blogspot.com/2013/05/jake-genesis-penitents-story.html

He added: "Given that, with the appointment of Archbishop Martin, a bishop has been found amongst us, then, surely, somewhere near or far, a bishop will be found for us.

2013 Junior Ring Ceremony CATHOLIC EDUCATOR - April 24, 2013 ... will be saying good-bye. What kind of year will you, the junior class, make of it in the interim? What kind of school will you create? What legacy will you leave? On a personal level, what kind of person will you vow to become? As your principal, I ask that you pray for God's guidance and wisdom today, as we pray for you. Ask him to give you the courage to live as he wants you to live. If you do that, it's going to be a pretty magnificent senior ...http://catholiceducator.blogspot.com/2013/04/junior-ring-ceremony.html
The Link Between Wisdom Teeth, Vocational Discernment and the Intercession of St. Apollonia GOD ALONE SUFFICETH - April 21, 2013 ... abundance of "extras" leads to pain and discomfort as the realization that it can't all fit becomes evident. We need to discern if there is enough room in God's plan for us of both these "extras" and Himself. If there is then, great, we've cleared a major hurdle. However, as is often the case, there isn't enough room and these "extras" – which may not be harmful in and of themselves, they just don't fit in God's plan – like wisdom teeth, have to GO! Like the ...http://godalonesufficeth.wordpress.com/2013/04/21/the-link-between-wisdom-teeth-vocational-discernment-and-the-intercession-of-st-apollonia/

I spent part of the day on Eden Food's facebook page, not only learning more about their yummy-looking food, but jumping into some lively debates. The boycott by the left is in full swing, and the writer for Salon.com who started this crusade against Potter has gleefully followed up, hopeful that the company may now be in deep trouble .

A Game of What's That Sound? LIFE OF A CATHOLIC LIBRARIAN - April 10, 2013 ... I can't get it to restart, and there is water pouring into the basement." ! We both rush downstairs. Mike heads down before me and when he reaches the bottom I can hear a horrible *sloshing* sound. I quickly see that the water is about ankle deep in one half of the basement and is stealthily making it's way across the floor. This is very, very bad. Mike works to get stuff up off the floor and attempts to bail some water while I call the hardware stores to see if anybody is ...http://lifeofacatholiclibrarian.blogspot.com/2013/04/a-game-of-whats-that-sound.html
Eucharistic Evangelism ATONEMENTONLINE - April 3, 2013 ... Church was several blocks away, and to get there I had about a thirty-minute walk. On the way, I would have to pass St. Paul's Catholic Church. Now, up until this time, all I knew about the Catholic Church was what I had observed in the little corner of New England where I had grown up. And from what I could see, it seemed like it was made up mostly of Italian and Portuguese people. I had been inside a Catholic Church only once in my life. I was a very young boy at the time, and I didn't ...http://atonementparish.blogspot.com/2013/04/eucharistic-evangelism.html

What Will Become of Austria's Father Schüller in the New Papacy? CLERICAL WHISPERS - March 29, 2013 ... was succeeded by Poland's Cardinal Karol Wojtyla, who took the name John Paul II. "At the beginning I was fascinated," Father Schüller said of John Paul II. "The great subject of Eastern Europe was the focal point." In addition to the new emphasis on the states behind the Iron Curtain, other shifts became apparent. There was a backlash against liberation theology and a move away from the spirit of reform embodied by the Second Vatican Council. The expectations of a modernized church were ...http://clericalwhispers.blogspot.com/2013/03/what-will-become-of-austrias-father.html

Ruminations MY APOLOGIES - March 20, 2013 Thank you, dear Readers, for your prayers! It's the old adage at work "everything will look better in the morning". My husband and I have talked long and often about my last post, I've prayed on it and gone to spiritual council in confession. I haven't reached any formal conclusions, but the Holy Spirit has prompted me with this thought along the way: You are the decisions you make. Hubby and I made the decisions we did at the prompting of much grace in our ...http://freakinominalblog.blogspot.com/2013/03/ruminations.html

So maybe I could stop trying. It's not working so far I know that much. My life has been waiting for me. My husband and children have been waiting for me. Could I come here to Him in my little familiar chapel, or Mass, or any chapel or any Mass where he is, and have my soaked through dressing removed and His healing balm reapplied? I could then get my brand new dressing and return to the ...http://postabortionwalk.blogspot.com/2013/03/bring-it-here.html
Picking the Pope: Holy Spirit or 'Groupthink'? CLERICAL WHISPERS - March 13, 2013 ... pope is supposed to be guided by the Holy Spirit. There's no horse-trading or lobbying, no insider deal-making or outside influences allowed. Just red-robed cardinals solemnly entering the Sistine Chapel, accompanied only by prayers and their consciences, sitting beneath Michelangelo's fresco of the Last Judgment and discerning God's will on who should be the next successor to St. Peter. At least that's the theory. The last millennium has shown that papal ...http://clericalwhispers.blogspot.com/2013/03/picking-pope-holy-spirit-or-groupthink.html

What accounts for this historic shift? While the Holy Spirit may be getting more efficient, behavioral scientists and church experts argue a new group dynamic is playing a growing role as well, and that the "bandwagon effect" is now proving as powerful as any sacred (or profane) electioneering did before. That's the upshot of a ...http://reform-network.net/?p=20341

Saint Francesca of Rome VULTUS CHRISTI - March 9, 2013 ... Agnes, Cecilia, and so many others. Like them she wanted to consecrate her virginity to Christ, but her parents had other plans. The first big decision in her life was out of her hands. At the age of thirteen she gave in to her parents and married Lorenzo Ponziano, the wealthy nobleman they had chosen for her. Francesca was expected to be the perfect socialite, charming, beautiful, witty, and worldly as only Romans know how to be worldly. In her heart she longed for the ...http://vultus.stblogs.org/2013/03/9-march-saint-francesca-of-rom.html
