The Presentation of the Lord I →
Today’s readings (Used a “vigil” of this feast for the school children to close Catholic Schools Week.) Back in the time that Jesus lived, it was a law that every first-born male in a family was presented to God, given to God to do God’s will. They would come on the fortieth day of the child’s […]

Seems like Twitter isn’t as fixed as they say they are. Sadly, it seems like this happens all the time. Murphy’s law is the one constant in all things technical.

St. John Bosco, Priest →
Today’s readings St. John Bosco was a master catechist who knew the meaning of Jesus’ question in today’s Gospel: “Is a lamp brought in to be placed under a bushel basket or under a bed, and not to be placed on a lampstand?” He was a priest who was concerned with the whole person of the […]

Copying new niece Katie pictures to flickr and to the webserver so I can download to my mac at home. The pics take up more space than Katie! # Getting ready for bed. Katie pics are on flickr and now on my iPod, not to mention on Mom’s computer. Got that and a few other things done! # Waking up to 36 degrees is a little bit of a gift after the cold weather of the past week. Those weather guys...

St. Thomas Aquinas, Priest and Doctor →
Today’s readings “But no one can enter a strong man’s house to plunder his property.” Not many have done more to strengthen the house of the Church than St. Thomas Aquinas. I have to admit that reading him in seminary was rather a challenge, because it was often hard to follow his line of […]

The day begins earlier than usual, but sadly the frozen ground would produce no worm for the early bird. Twooshing before 6am? I know-loser! # Celebrated Mass and have had breakfast so far. I have Mass again at 12:15 and then home to celebrate Mass for the family (special occasion). # Powered by Twitter Tools. Share This

Third Sunday of Ordinary Time →
Today’s readings About fifteen years ago now, my home parish put on a production of the musical Godspell, and somehow I found myself part of the cast. If you’ve ever seen the musical, you know that it is based on the Gospel of Matthew, the Gospel that we are reading during this Church year. I remember […]

The workday is over - finally - and hunger is setting in. Too tired to make dinner? Or too tired NOT to eat? Only time would tell for sure. # The dawn arrived warmer than it had in previous days, but the sun would repose behind the clouds as the world awakened. The day lie ahead.. # Getting ready for the day. A parent meeting and a homily to write. Then off for family stuff. Come, Holy...

It’s been a long and busy day, but I accomplished a lot, thanks to the Holy Spirit! Best of all, chocolate cake waits in the kitchen! Yummy! # How did it get to be Friday already? but here we are, on the cusp of the weekend, and miles to go before I sleep. No rest for the wicked eh? # It would be a cold, and maybe snowy, evening.

Hey, Mr. Elia Brown!
Spambot: I am Mr. Elia Brown by name and the CEO/OWNER of BenMarvic
Textiles company Inc. I need someone that will be representing my
company as a Manager, who will attend to customers in receiving
payments
Me: Oh man, please let it be ME!
Spambot: hello
what your name
?
Me: You don't know? I would think my fame would have spread far and wide throughout the land.
I am internationally known as a top-notch Manager who assists customers in receiving payments.
But hey, I'm sure you're smart enough to have known that, or you never would have contacted me in the first place, right?
I have ALWAYS wanted to work for BenMarvic Textiles company Inc. and it seems like today is my LUCKY day!
Can I please give you my credit card number so you can check my references?
Or maybe you'd rather have my social security number. That might be easier, right?
Hello?
Spambot: hello
are u there/
Me: Yeah, you mean you haven't been enjoying this conversation all along?
You haven't been ignoring me have you?
Hello?
Are u there?

St. Francis de Sales →
Today’s readings | Today’s saint “A spoonful of honey attracts more flies than a barrelful of vinegar.” This quote pretty much sums up the way St. Francis de Sales approached life and ministry. Francis de Sales took seriously the words of Christ, “Learn of me for I am meek and humble of heart.” As he said […]

The Anniversary of Roe v. Wade →
Today’s readings “Not as man sees does God see, because he sees the appearance but the LORD looks into the heart.” This instruction to Samuel is both a good thing and a bad thing for us, I think. It’s good because it’s nice to know that there is One who does not judge us on what we look like or how we dress or what we do for a living, but rather on what is in our heart. It’s bad, because there...
