Congrats Deacon Ralph & Wife Mary! THE DEACON'S WIFE - May 6, 2013 The following is a contribution by Mary from the diocese of Cincinnati. She has graciously accepted to write about her experience. Saturday, April 27, 2013 was an unbelievable day for me as the wife of a newly ordained permanent deacon. Our journey began in 2005 when my husband, a very quiet introverted electrical engineer, came back from living his Cursillo weekend and told me that he thought God wanted something more from him. I really thought he was just having that ...http://deaconswife.com/2013/05/congrats-deacon-ralph-wife-mary/

A Writing Challenge That Does Not Challenge OVERFLOW - April 1, 2013 ... overflowing. Annual testing for the kids, my birthday, field trips, our amateur movie premiere, a retreat for my husband and me, my son's First Holy Communion, the list goes on…. I had considered committing to participate in Camp NaNoWriMo, which is an offshoot of National Novel WritingMonth .

The Little Flowers of Franciscan Apologists: How "The Usual Image of Francis and Poverty Is Skewed." ABBEY-ROADS - March 25, 2013 ... written in few words and simply, and the lord pope confirmed it for me. And those who came to receive life gave all that they had to the poor and were content with one tunic patched inside and out, with a cord and trousers. And we did not wish to have more. [...] The brothers must be careful not to accept any churches, poor dwellings, or anything else constructed for them unless these buildings reflect the holy poverty promised by us in the rule. We should always live in these places as ...http://abbey-roads.blogspot.com/2013/03/how-usual-image-of-francis-and-poverty.html
The desert is not a dwelling place; it is only a path, a road on which ... AFTER ABORTION - March 15, 2013 ... to finish the sentence. I recall trying to talk about it to the one person I could trust, a priest friend, and being unable to speak out of sheer anguish and shame. He was the youth group director, and my then-9-year-old son adored him, couldn't wait to be old enough for youth group and we'd choose him to be his Confirmation sponsor 6 years later. Why, out of the supposed blue though, did my veneer start to crack? I'm not sure. I'd started attending scripture study a few years before, and had ...http://afterabortion.blogspot.com/2013/03/the-desert-is-not-dwelling-place-it-is.html

Lenten Ideas/ Activities 2013 CATHOLIC FIRE - February 10, 2013 What is Lent? "Lent is a retreat that the Church gives us in order to re-focus on what should be first in our lives. The purpose of Jesus' life was to glorify the Father and save the world. ..Lent is not first a time of giving up but a time to re-choose to be the victim of Christ, the Lamb. It is a time to live the Beatitudes." (Fr.
