When I transferred to the University in 2002, I had several revelations: the first was that I didn’t have to be a Lutheran if [...] Elise arrived at 6:08a on Friday, August 22nd – the Feast of the Queenship of Mary.

What [...] is up over at Living Catholicism. I have a head cold and am feeling incredibly run-down, so go check out the Carnival while I recover. |
