Our Heavenly Father Looks After His Sheep (Easter 5C) HOMILIES AND OCCASIONAL THOUGHTS - April 24, 2013 To mark the Year of Faith, we've invited a number of parishioners to share their testimony at Mass, as allowed by liturgical norms. From time to time I will post their words on the blog alongside of my homily. Today is sometimes called Good Shepherd Sunday. It's also the World Day of Prayer for Vocations, so it's a perfect day for me to make an announcement—and a confession. First, the announcement. We are going to establish a Vocations Committee in ...http://gregorynsmith.blogspot.com/2013/04/our-heavenly-father-looks-after-his.html
Doors CROOKED LINES - April 18, 2013 ... for his homily. We all hide behind "locked doors" of some kind. Whether its a locked door of impatience, unforgiveness, fear, addiction, anxiety, etc. God is with us - as he was with the Apostles - behind the locked doors. Later that afternoon, I emailed my pastor about the possibility of blessing the Eagle project detailed in the previous post. He knows my struggles and my situation well, and I signed my email with something along the lines of "unlocking doors, one deadbolt ...http://crooked-lines.blogspot.com/2013/04/doors.html
Linda Weigel - Teacher, Colleague, and Friend MOUNT ANGEL SEMINARY JOURNALISM - April 17, 2013 ... Or if she was in a good mood, she might say she was "tip-toppish." Weigel seemingly nicknamed everyone, but the nicknames were restricted to Weigel's charm. No one else could get away with using them. A list of Weigelisms can be found at the end of this article. In the classroom, around the committee table, at the Tribunal, or on a friend's patio with a Tanqueray gin and tonic in hand, Weigel forged friendships that lasted. Fr. Thomas identified this as her defining ...http://masjournalism.blogspot.com/2013/04/linda-weigel-teacher-colleague-and.html

Each week – we use the upcoming readings for the Sunday Mass, and perhaps when you read these words, you'll remember that on the 4th Sunday in Lent, we had the Gospel reading about the parable of the Prodigal Son.

Speed CATHOLIC SENSIBILITY - March 9, 2013 ... . She was also fast. It might have been nervous fast, as she seemed to slow her pace by the end of the reading. That's a tough reading to rip through–there's a lot of thoughtfulness in the litany, which the pastor touched on in his homily. Speed seemed to be one possible hallmark of preconciliar liturgy, as people once explained it to me in the 70′s. Be glad you're a Catholic now, they said. Father N could get through Low Mass in 20 minutes or ...http://catholicsensibility.wordpress.com/2013/03/09/speed/

I knew this was God's way of talking to me, but how did He know I was still in hiding? I had left the field of standup comedy over a year ago. I couldn't stand the performance anxiety. I thought I could camouflage myself next to the other soccer moms and pretend it all never happened. I was in denial that it was one of the true joys of my life. Seventeen years of performances across the country were full of adventure and good times, but I let fear win. ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Catholicmomcom/~3/W-T3tYHv9z4/

First, I see the ghost of that rat-bastard Uncle Joe Stalin is raising its frightful head again among the good citizens of Volgagrad. I would suggest that these people might want to think twice about what spirits they choose to summon up from the pits. Second, it appears a local advertising campaign has been launched to "take back" the word "Jihad" .
