Mother's Day Pearls S.TAY A.T H.OME M.OM AT WORK - May 23, 2013 Mother's Day has come and gone, yes I am aware, yet this past Mother's Day my eyes were opened to something so uniquely feminine, it deserved a moment of pause. At times Mother's Day is so focused on us Moms, which is well deserved and rightly so. Our social culture will sell us on the perfect gift for her, flowers, mani/pedis or string of pearls. Yet, I was overcome with a profound understanding this year about our role as mothers, as caretakers having that 'feminine ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/StayAtHomeMomAtWork/~3/3iG2iFYJLXE/mothers-day-pearls.html

LMH My parish used to take the water out of the holy water font during Lent. Although they stopped doing that a number of years ago, I still remember the feeling of oddly-dry fingers on the way in to Mass that accompanied the stripped-down altar and the absent Alleluia. I came to the Catholic Church incrementally, but part of what drew ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Catholicmomcom/~3/CrvJGIeHb2c/

Saint Simon Stock COMMUNIO - May 16, 2013 ... at death if wearing the scapular. Stock was a hymn writer, a good leader and a man of sanctity, whom the Church recognized soon after his death. The liturgical offices were approved by the Church in the 15th century. It is said that Simon heard the Mother of God say, Hoc erit tibi et cunctis Carmelitis privilegium, in hoc habitu moriens salvabitur. (This shall be the privilege for you and for all the Carmelites, that anyone dying in this habit shall be saved.) The bestowal of ...http://communio.stblogs.org/2013/05/saint-simon-stock.html
The Diocese of East Anglia Pilgrimage to Walsingham HEDGEHOGSPOTTER - May 7, 2013 ... silent procession to the Shrine. We actually went along the road and not down the old railway path, luckily there were marshals there to stop the traffic, a peaceful walk is a good time to reflect, the silence was broken by the birds in the hedgerow, I managed to see Gold Finch, Chaffinch, Blue Tit, Oyster Catcher, Lapwing as well as the usual ducks, geese and rabbits. I was quite glad that we had processed down the road as there was shade given to us by the trees as the sun was now beating ...http://hedgehogspotter.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-diocese-of-east-anglia-pilgrimage.html

The Peanut's Mass THE CURT JESTER - April 28, 2013 ... hymn does not score high on my scale. Little Drummer Boy – fine. Full grown man banging away during hymns – not so much. I kept expecting a drum solo. Still this is not what surprised me at Mass. Towards the end they had the children come up to the altar to donate money that had raised for the homebound. While this was happening the pianist started playing " Linus and Lucy " – yes the Peanuts theme song. If my jaw had been ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/splendoroftruth/lNZE/~3/owP2VzmbCwU/
Jesus Doesn't Want to Have His Picture Taken With Just You . . . THE DIGITAL HAIRSHIRT - April 28, 2013 ... today at St. Albert the Great we sang the hymn They'll Know We Are Christians, a hymn that never fails to bring back memories of my childhood summer days at Camp Marydell, where I gave serious thought as a young girl to joining the Sisters of Christian Doctrine. We sang that hymn often in our chapel and I picture an army of Catholics when I hear, "We will walk with each other, we will walk side-by-side . . ."

Confirmation HOMILIES AND OCCASIONAL THOUGHTS - April 27, 2013 ... remember the homily! Mr. Maledy still remembers a homily at a school Mass when the priest let loose a wind-up flying bird. It gave a great performance as the Holy Spirit before it hit one of the grade sevens in the back of the head! But let's go back to my new bike. It's not exactly new: a very clever friend built it for me from spare parts in his workshop.

It is truly good to be here (cf. Mt 17:4). Since my arrival in Ireland some fourteen months ago, I have made several visits to this holy and renowned place.

Blackbird Has Spoken BETWEEN THE 'BURGH AND THE CITY - April 19, 2013 Earlier this week, the fiance and I were watching a rerun of " Pushing Daisies " (a series I missed when it aired a few years back). At the end of this particular episode, the character played by Ellen Greene (famous as Audrey in " Little Shop of Horrors ") sang the beautiful old hymn " Morning Has Broken ." It occurred to me her soft and sweet rendition would work perfectly as a long-overdue " YouTube clip for a peaceful weekend" in ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BetweenTheburghAndTheCity/~3/lAnraUd6nqM/blackbird-has-spoken.html

Seven Quick Takes (Vol 147) FAMILY IN FEAST AND FERIA - April 12, 2013 Praying for Jen and her sweet little one. May he get stronger and come home soon! 1) I know so much of the US has been experiencing crazy weather. We didn't have ice storms, but still very extreme weather. We broke heat records this week for temperatures in the 90s. We had freezing temperatures and snow in March and all of a sudden it's super hot. This is so typical for Virginia's springs. We never warm up gradually. Thankfully we are experiencing some rain today to lower ...http://familyfeastandferia.wordpress.com/2013/04/12/seven-quick-takes-vol-147/
