The Harmony of Truth and Love CATHOLIC VISION - April 16, 2013 Today, April 16th, is the 86th birthday of our Pope Emeritus, Benedict. I love Pope Benedict, Joseph Ratzinger. I love his Christian imagination, his heart of prayer, and his gift for teaching. Pope Benedict saved my vocation to the priesthood. Somewhat. When I was in seminary it was during the pontificat of Blessed John Paul II. Most all of my brothers LOVED JP2 and raved about his writings: the Theology of the Body, Love and Responsibility, Veritatis ...http://catholic-vision.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-harmony-of-truth-and-love.html

VICTOR BROWN'S CATHOLIC DAILY MESSAGE - March 29, 2013 ... priest all my life, and the day when that sacrament was conferred upon me—nearly 50 years ago—was a defining moment in my life. It ushered me into a whole new world of sacred activity, but the greatest power that it gave me was that of celebrating Mass, the highest form of divine worship that the world has ever been given and that human beings can offer to our God. I remember when I was a child, one of my teachers was talking to us about saying that we were "going ...http://frbrown.wordpress.com/2013/03/29/holy-thursday-28-march-2013/
Chrism Mass March 2013 - Cashel and Emly CLERICAL WHISPERS - March 29, 2013 Homily of Archbishop Dermot Clifford for the Chrism Mass Cathedral of the Assumption, Thurles "There is only one priest; All are priests, Some men are priests" I don't know whether you like riddles, puzzles or conundrums! I realise they are more appropriate to Christmas than to Easter but the cold weather these days makes them seem seasonal! But if you do, let me give you a clue: Pope Benedict said at the Chrism Mass in 2009: "There is only one priest of ...http://clericalwhispers.blogspot.com/2013/03/chrism-mass-march-2013-cashel-and-emly.html
Happy Birthday to the Catholic Priesthood! THE DIGITAL HAIRSHIRT - March 28, 2013 ... got these pictures (all photography is mine). All priests. Happy or disinterested, good or bad, devout or profane. Because they have been given a special charisma that Christ Himself imparted to His Apostles and that has carried down through the ages, to a point where a Bishop lays his hands on a man's head and keeps that lineage flowing. How that man chooses to live it is his choice, but it is something sacred and thus they will always need out prayers. Bishop Richard Stika of the Diocese of ...http://digihairshirt.blogspot.com/2013/03/happy-birthday-to-catholic-priesthood.html

My View From the Pew DOLCE DOMUM - March 24, 2013 Today was Palm Sunday and the commencement of my favorite week of the year: Holy Week. It is a time of deep prayer and reflection for me. And at the Easter Vigil Mass on Saturday night I will be celebrating my twentieth "birthday" as a Catholic. This morning it was just my two boys and I at the 10:30 Mass. My wife and daughter had attended at 9:00 AM in order to return home and do some baking for a project our daughter needed for a group activity later in ...http://jeffwalker.wordpress.com/2013/03/24/my-view-from-the-pew/
How Do You "Offer It Up"? CATHOLICMOM.COM - March 22, 2013 ... biggest thing, dear David, that led me into the Church. To know that He died for my sins. I put Him on the cross. I , in effect, yelled 'crucify Him!' with that crowd. He died for sin, and He died for my sins. And, to learn that I put Him to death by my sin and that, though I caused His death, He would now receive me in the very sacrifice that He paid in order for me to have life. It was just overwhelming for me. So, He enables us to join with Him. And, in a sense, though His sacrifice is ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Catholicmomcom/~3/pl4vQTgka8E/

So I really don't feel like her passion is the result of anything we've "done" other than maybe going to Mass and praying together... (as a disclaimer, because I want to share what she's been saying of late, because she amazes me and I want to write it down): For her third birthday she demanded a "Holy Baby" party.

Out of the Mouths of Babes AND SOMETIMES TEA - March 18, 2013 ... final prayer and blessing. In other words, it's still during Mass. Now, I get that Father can't do it before our 8:30 a.m. Mass as he's most often saying the 7:15 a.m. Mass at our main parish 25 minutes away. And he can't easily schedule it for after as he's most often dashing out our door to get to the main parish in time to say the 10:00 a.m. (At both churches, the before-Mass question "Is Father here yet?" is quite common, especially if the choir director or servers need ...http://redcardigan.blogspot.com/2013/03/out-of-mouths-of-babes.html

But the biggest jolt I got came from the priest who said Mass a week ago Sunday, who reminded us that in the space of that week we, who already don't have a bishop--he was sent to Orange, CA--would now also have no pope. That pause in the Canon is getting longer and longer... Still, I realized that there is something I'm really grateful to the pope emeritus in all of this.

People Who Are Blessings Are to Be Shared! ALWAYS A JOY... - February 21, 2013 ... Fr. Michael – "More of you, Lord, and less of me." That is the MAIN lesson I have learnt from Fr. Michael. He is a beautiful example of servant leadership. A tireless and zealous priest who lives for God! Nothing and no one but Jesus! Off the stage, Fr. Michael is not seen around much. He is very soft-spoken and seems quite an introvert usually. One thing truly stood out – Fr. Michael is a priest of deep prayers with a tremendous love of the Holy ...http://alwaysajoy.blogspot.com/2013/02/people-who-are-blessings-are-to-be.html
