Monday Greetings and a New Twist to This Catholic's Worship Life GOTTA SING GOTTA PRAY - June 17, 2013 ... Sunday Mass at Notre Dame de Chicago, a parish close to my home.

Why Did God Give the Rosary? Answer From Saint Pio and Bl John Paul II DR. TAYLOR MARSHALL CANTERBURY TALES - June 15, 2013 The Catholic Church has only known the Rosary for about 800 years. The fifteen mysteries of the Most Holy Rosary were given by Our Lady to Saint Dominic. [Please read my article: "How Our Lady Gave the Rosary to Saint Dominic" ] Since then the Catholic Church has encouraged all the faithful to pray the Rosary.

For the Love of St. Joan of Arc TOTUS TUUS FAMILY & CATHOLIC HOMESCHOOL - May 30, 2013 I like collecting images of St. Joan of Arc, as she is my Confirmation saint and "Joan" was my Nana's middle name. These pieces of art speak to me. The largest one, on the top especially, as it hangs in the Met in NY. While I lived there, I would visit her and she was life-sized! Face to face I could look into her eyes, watering with awe and incredulity at the Saints who were speaking to her.

Saint Louis Catholic Gets Berger Bitten SAINT LOUIS CATHOLIC - May 22, 2013 If you are a St. Louisan of a certain age (and I don't mean young), you will be familiar with the gossip columnist Jerry Berger. He used to write for the Post-Dispatch, and appear semi-regularly on the local news. He would write pithy bites about locals who do and or did stuff. It seems that these days he is relegated to blogdom like me. Whether that is a compliment to me or a negative for him I will leave for you to decide. Reader TradDadof4 was kind enough to point out that Berger ...http://stlouiscatholic.blogspot.com/2013/05/saint-louis-catholic-gets-berger-bitten.html
