As tomorrow is Pentecost, I wanted to post this beautiful Litany of the Holy Spirit I found on EWTN’s Pentecost section:
Lord, have mercy on us. Christ, have mercy on us. Lord, have mercy on us.
Father all-powerful, have mercy on us. Jesus, Eternal Son of the Father, Redeemer of the world, save us. [...]
In the aftermath of a road trip, comes the laundry. Two weeks’ worth, times two adults and one infant. Not to mention the fact that I need to wash the bathroom rugs, the towels, and bed sheets. Luckily I have the clothing part done and folded, and currently the washer is getting a vinegar [...]
After it’s all said and done…
- we drove a little over 5,000 miles. – we spent about 8 days driving to New York and back. – we went through two time zones. – And eight states. – we stayed in about 7 different hotels. – One had bed bugs, which we didn’t stay [...]
to the blogosphere, that is.
Obviously my domain name expired and being over in New York, I really didn’t notice it until yesterday. Fortunately, I was able to get in touch with my cousin (aka, the one who takes care of my domain and hosting), and he has obviously renewed it. YAY! So, my [...]
I’m trying to venture into the world of automatic posting, bear with me. If this works, it’ll be quite handy when we’re on the road.
~ ~ ~ Our trip to New York is coming up FAST, and I’ve got to get the three of us packed up. I’ve made a packing list so [...]

In honor of Fulton Sheen’s 114th birthday, here are a couple links that I really enjoy:
50 downloadable talks by Archbishop Sheen, ranging from “The Philosophy of Life” to “Womanhood in Religion”. I highly recommend these, as Archbishop Sheen is easy to understand, but deep at the same time. I listened to the [...]
I think I am going to fall over with delight.
Greg, Elise, and I are going to New York … next week (!!!!). For someone who’s never been any further East than say, Indiana; this is big news. But the bigger news is that I was able to get permission to go pray in [...]
I think things are starting to change with regards to my soul. They’re still in the dark, dreary, dry times; but it doesn’t seem as soul choking. I was thinking last night about the “fake it ’till you make it” thought process. That even if I don’t “feel” anything of God or think He’s [...]
Since I’ve got a few things to take care of right now, can anyone tell me anything about the writer Michael Davies? I did do some Googling, but want to hear from anyone who’s read his works (good, bad, indifferent). I found one of his books at the thrift store and it looks quite [...]
