You Read the Writings of Cardinal Bergolio at Your Own Peril If You Are Looking for Pope Francis ABYSSUS ABYSSUM INVOCAT / DEEP CALLS TO DEEP - May 6, 2013 ... olim Ratzinger might not be as useful when it comes to reading Francis olim Bergoglio. For starters, Francis wrote far less than either JP2 or B16 and the less evidence one has of something the more tentatively one interprets it. Moreover, what writings we do have from Bergoglio seem less aimed at academic audiences or others seeking theoretical precision than at practitioners of pastoral arts. One should not read Bergoglio's prose with more technical precision than he usually wrote with. As ...http://abyssum.wordpress.com/2013/05/06/you-read-the-writings-of-cardinal-bergolio-at-your-own-peril-if-you-are-looking-for-pope-francis/

The Supper is the paschal mystery, "a covenant in my blood; a new law" (Martimort, Wagner, Vagaggini, Pascher, Guano).) 6) The octave of Pentecost is suppressed. (Here again there was disagreement. The suppression was accepted with the expectation that the formularies of the octave would be used during the nine days of preparation for Pentecost. On this point again there were changes of mind, but the decision of the Fathers finally prevailed. 7) The ...http://ttonys-blog.blogspot.com/2013/05/a-worm-in-apple.html
George Glenn Jones (1931 - 2013) MAN WITH BLACK HAT - April 26, 2013 ... and a musical collaboration that far outlasted the marriage, which ended in divorce in 1975. Even his failure to show up for performances inspired the song "No-Show Jones." What's more, his 1996 arrest for riding a lawn mower on an open road was parodied in the music video "Honky Tonk Song." His cameo appearances in other country music videos also found him riding on a lawn mower. But it was during his fourth marriage in 1983 to Jenny Johnson, that he cleaned up his act, and she was considered ...http://manwithblackhat.blogspot.com/2013/04/george-glenn-jones-1931-2013.html
The Other Tissot THE CANON'S STALL - April 13, 2013 Every Lent our local Council of Churches - Churches Together in Llanishen and District - organizes discussion groups. This year they were particularly popular, drawing over 60 people. The sharing each week was inspired by several works of art depicting scriptural themes. Then after Easter a get-together/reflection/thanksgiving is held, and this year it was the turn of Christ the King to host this, so I went along on Tuesday. As well as several works that ...http://thecanonsstall.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-other-tissot.html
Code for Automatically Figuring Out the Liturgical Season and Changing the Colour on a Website OPEN SOURCE CATHOLIC - ALL POSTS - April 1, 2013 Back in 2006, I started to work on my first Catholic blog ( www.beingfrank.co.nz ). As I started to explore Wordpress as a CMS and how the themes work within that platform, I wanted to get the colours of the site to change with the liturgical seasons of the Church - i.e. violet for Lent and Advent, gold for Easter etc. So, I searched the web trying to find the algorithm that is used to calculate when Easter is, as all the other dates in the calendar ...http://www.opensourcecatholic.com/blog/james-bergin/code-automatically

Palm Sunday - C GOD'S WORD TO US - March 23, 2013 Commentary Luke 22: 14 –23:56 The Price of God's Love This Gospel passage continues and brings to climax the great themes of God's boundless love and forgiveness. This has been one of the themes of the Sunday Gospels during Lent for this Cycle C taken from Luke. We have heard God's love and forgiveness from Jesus' teaching on God's patience in the parable of the fig tree (2 rd Sunday of Lent).

Making the Most of Holy Week - March 20, 2013 As Lent draws to a close, it's quite possible that full scale panic may begin to set in as you realize that you haven't done all that much to take advantage of the season. If so, my advice to you is simple… DON'T PANIC…IT'S NOT TOO LATE! If you're reading this, I'm fairly certain that you're still alive (if not, I'd like to hear from you!) which means that you still have time to make some spiritual progress before Lent is over. The fact that ...http://www.followingthetruth.com/making-the-most-of-holy-week/

Passiontide and Exile: How Can We Sing the Lord's Song in a Strange Land? William Byrd Seems to Have the Answer A RELUCTANT SINNER - March 18, 2013 ... programme mentioned above.) The reason behind sending this music to Byrd was simple. De Monte was secretly asking his fellow Catholic: "How can [you] sing the Lord's song in a strange land?" In other words, how are you able to write such fine music for those who torment you? How are you able to sit in exile and still produce sublime songs for the Lord? Byrd's friend also seemed to be inviting him to "hang up his harp" on the "willow-trees" (cf v 2), and leave his exile – possibly for a ...http://areluctantsinner.blogspot.com/2013/03/passiontide-and-exile-how-can-we-sing.html
Reflections on Today's Gospel: Sat., March 16. YOUNG FOGEYS - March 16, 2013 We know we're getting close to the end of Lent because the tones of the Gospel readings have changed. At the beginning of Lenten season, the readings' themes were things like prayer, mercy, forgiveness, humility, almsgiving, etc. Now, especially in this past week, the Gospels are confrontational. All this week we've read the confrontation between Jesus and the Scribes and Pharisees. "Who do you think you are doing this healing on the Sabbath?" Who is he? He ...http://youngfogeys.blogspot.com/2013/03/reflections-on-todays-gospel-sat-march.html

We have the figure of Jesus as the ideal Son of God, who overcomes temptations (First Sunday) and is approved by the Father during the Transfiguration, "This is my chosen Son" (Second Sunday). For the Third Sunday, the Gospel reading teaches us about God's patience ...http://godsword2us.blogspot.com/2013/03/5th-sunday-of-lent-c.html

What We Can Expect During the Reign of Francis - March 16, 2013 The name Francis likely reveals what will be the main themes of this papacy. I've heard confirmations that the Holy Father chose the name Francis in honor of St. Francis of Assisi, as opposed to St. Francis Xavier or St. Francis de Sales. However, all three of these great saints have important things in common: all three of them were great evangelizers, and all three pursued a mission of building, or re-building, the Church ...http://thepracticingcatholic.wordpress.com/2013/03/16/what-we-can-expect-during-the-reign-of-francis/

First of all, with the exception of Benedict's remarks enroute to Fatima in May 2013, the Huffington Post highlights that the idea of resignation had long been on Benedict's mind. Benedict , as I keep repeating (because it should be repeated) already knew the Third Secret of Fatima when he became the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church .

Mass for First Scrutiny HOMILIES AND OCCASIONAL THOUGHTS - March 3, 2013 ... interrupt the flow of the Lenten themes on which I was preaching. I didn't know what to say — the last time I thought about having an overall theme for my homilies was 25 years ago, which was the last time I had time! However, since Archbishop Prendergast is a respected Scripture scholar who approaches preaching very seriously, his comment encouraged me to take a good look at the overall structure of the Gospels we'll hear at the 11 o'clock Mass for the rest of ...http://gregorynsmith.blogspot.com/2013/03/mass-for-first-scrutiny.html
