My "Universal" Family

I resisted the urge to tag this post with something like outer space, extraterrestrial, or aliens, although it would have been funny. On the other hand, it may have brought some traffic I didn't want. When I say I have a universal family I mean it.... (www.catholic365.com)

Dear God Letters--Wheeling Valor

I sat on the bench looking about, and wondered the experiences they encountered as many of them wheeled along, coming and going--the automatic doors opening and closing--brave men and women arriving or leaving their doctors appointments.

One of the happiest moments of my life was when I first discovered the Catechism of the Catholic Church. In that source, I found the core truths of my faith written out in clear, easy to understand language. One of my first big surprises – strange to say – was to discover that angels are real....

Gratitude Attitude

This article was born while I changed a poopy diaper. Not so surprising since I do a lot of that. As is sometimes the case, my toddler fought my effort to make him clean, pleasant-smelling, and rash-free by flailing around, threatening to inadvertently smear feces over everything within heiney's re...

What Holds The World Together

Cut away the umbilical cord, but don’t cut away the heart. Because the heart—the feminine heart—helps hold the world together. I watched today with tears in my eyes as the women of the Our Lady of the Lake Altar Society processed up the center aisle of the church, carrying roses and bouquets for the... (www.catholic365.com)

Choosing Love Over Death

We live with pain just over the horizon. It's there. It never goes away or even fades. It sometimes peeks through, over the hills, and washes over us unexpectedly. It can take our breath away. It can catch us when we round a bend or cross a path, without warning or mercy.... (www.catholic365.com)

“It’s the hardest thing to give away and the last thing on your mind today. It always seems to go to those who don’t deserve. It’s the opposite of how you feel when the pain they caused is just too real. It takes all you have just to say the word…”... (www.catholic365.com)

How I've Come to Reconcile with the Sacrament of Reconciliation

Grace is one of the most powerful gifts that I think we can get directly from God. In 2 Corinthians 12:9, it states,“But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.”... (www.catholic365.com)

Reflecting on the third Friday of Lent, we continue with the Seven Words of Christ. In this scene at the foot of the Cross, Mary the Mother of Jesus, the Apostle John, and other women who were friends and supporters of Jesus and the Disciples are near enough to the Cross that they can see and hear J...

We Reap What We Sow

My family and I watched a you-tube video called “180” which interviews “people off the street” and asks them about their knowledge of history, specifically WWII and the war crimes of Nazi Germany under Hitler, and then applies the morality of Hitler’s thinking to abortion.... (www.catholic365.com)

Mary's Memories: Meditations on the Glorious Mysteries

I wrote these Meditations on the Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary. As I wrote, I tried to look at these mysteries through Mary’s eyes. Of course, these responses are fictional. I am writing these, not Mary. Let us look at Mary and see her Son.... (www.catholic365.com)
