Judas and Peter, Mary and the Children in the Church Abuse Crisis

Published September 12, 2018 • Written by Norine Shaivitz Filed Under: Blog

Amid the violent chaos of the impending crucifixion of Jesus were at least a few children. The eighth station shows they were in the crowd with their mothers, maybe the same ones who once asked the indignant Apostles whether Jesus could bless them. Jesus, who once said the meek were blessed, has also said the… [Read More]

Jesus, give us your Heart, make us strong to love!

Published June 8, 2018 • Written by Shawn Rain Chapman Filed Under: Blog, Faith, Social Justice

I have to think, in these dark times, during this epidemic of heartlessness, that we need to look to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, that we need the refuge and the example of His Heart more than ever. Every day I think we are all having to find ways to decompress from all the hatred,… [Read More]

Published September 27, 2012 • Written by Rachel Filed Under: Blog

Ever since Sunday I’ve been in a tangle of practical must-take-care-of-it tasks in the aftermath of getting rear-ended at a stoplight. Thanks be to God I was fine, and so was the other driver. Anyone who has been in a wreck knows that the mountain of things to deal with after it happens only prolongs… [Read More]

Slow To Anger

Published July 6, 2011 • Written by Brandon Kraft Filed Under: Blog, Faith

Yesterday, my not-quite-2-year-old and I went to the post office to check my P.O. Box. As we were sorting the mail, a woman walked in 20 minutes after closing time, saw they were closed and was very upset. I’ll save all of the details, but picture language not appropriate to say in front of a… [Read More]
