I love summer. The pace slows, the pool is open and it isn't cold! My favorite place to read is on my back porch--being in the shade it isn't usually overly hot, and since it is outside the air conditioning isn't freezing me out. I also don't have to listen to the tv. I've managed to read and blog quite a bit this week and I invite you to look around since you are here. I'd like to call your attention to a book that promotes Catholicism and Catholic values: Offerings: A Love Story. Also, I share a "failing" common to many moms--I think my kids are adorable and just know you will too. Here is what my youngest had to say about a play.

How deep is your faith in the Risen Lord? Would you risk job and family for His Holy Name? This woman did, as do many around the world daily. I know you'll pray for these courageous souls to persevere in the face of physical danger and spiritual isolation.
ReplyDeleteThe story sounds interesting. So noble that he wanted to help her out by marrying her. But it does seem incomplete that the author didn't explain why. I would've been very interested in that part as well.
ReplyDeleteLol, thanks for the cute anecdote about your 6 yo!
I linked to an older post about how Mother Teresa influenced me.
ReplyDeleteThanks RAnn,
ReplyDeleteI tried to write two reflections on Gods presence in my/our lives. Not sure if it worked through...
God Bless,

Posts this week include Dante, Purgatory, friendship, and a priest in South Carolina speaking the truth about Sec. of State Clinton's attempts to change freedom of religion. Whew! Thank, RAnn, for hosting!
ReplyDeleteFirst time here! How exciting! I look forward to reading your blogs!
ReplyDeleteI was silly and posted MY name and not the name of my blog! It is Deep in the Heart, and is usually just my reflections on life.
Hi RAnn. Thanks for hosting this. I really like to read what other Catholic bloggers have to say. And did I tell you I like your new theme and colors?
ReplyDeleteThis week on Sunday Snippets, WBN presents: Weddings and other Chaos.
