Things Priests Get Excited About

The new edition of the Roman Missal (with those famous “And with your spirit” new translated parts) is off the presses!

Chaotic Orchestra: A message to the Christians of... →
chaotic-orchestra:

Stop saying that something didn’t happen because God didn’t want it to, and that someone hates you because God is testing you. Things happen because of the natural laws of cause and effect and the things that...

Birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Salve, sancta parens, enixa puerpera Regem: qui coelum terramque regit in saecula saeculorum.
Today is the Feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary’s birth. Only natural, as December 8th is the feast of the Immaculate Conception, nine months ago. While today is not a Holy Day of Obligation, it is classified as a Feast, and is to be celebrated by the Church with greater solemnity than ordinary...
