Reynolds | September 16, 2013 The centurion's greeting made such a deep impression upon Jesus and his disciples that they were preserved in the ancient liturgy of the Church. We repeat them at Mass before receiving Holy Communion: "Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word an my soul shall be healed."  The World Has Groaned and Finds Itself Sexoheretic By Andrew M. Greenwell, Esq. | September 17, 2013 There is a heresy among us in the 21st century equally, or perhaps even more ubiquitously, among us as Arianism was in the 4th century, but as far as I can tell, it does not have a name.

Bartels | September 15, 2013 The parable of the Prodigal Son is the most famous parable of all time. The reason for its fame, is that it tells the story of a loving Father who is himself the desire of the human heart. He is a Father who, although he should be offended, refuses to become angry with his children--he does not give up on his son for even a moment. He is the type of Father we all hope for; he is the Father we all dream about; he is the Father we thirst for in the depths of our soul. Every human person unceasingly longs for just such a Father. Humanity itself longs for him; and, in God, we have him! Continue Reading...  Married Catholic Priests: Nothing New Said on Clerical Celibacy by Archbishop Pietro Parolin or Vatican By Deacon Keith Fournier | September 15, 2013 The prophetic witness of voluntary, consecrated celibacy has endured beyond the ranks of celibate clergy. It is also preserved in the inspired vowed life of monastic orders, the sacrificial witness of religious men and women, and the increasing new ecclesial associations of lay men and woman, who have chosen it, not to avoid marriage, but to enter more fully into the very nuptial mystery that marriage also reveals, but in a unique and prophetic way.

Rush is Right: RU 486 IS a Chemical Weapon By Deacon Keith Fournier | September 16, 2013 The intentional ingestion of RU 486 constitutes a chemical attack on human life in the mother's womb. RU486 is lethal. Its sole purpose is to cause the death of the human life within the mother. It also brings with it serious risks to the mother's own health. There can be do debate about this fact; we were all once human embryos. We all lived in the first home of the whole human race, our mother's womb. We must speak for human embryonic Life as we speak for all human life. We must expose the evil of chemical weapons wherever they are used, beginning with the real war on women - and on children - the use of chemical weapons on the womb. Rush is Right. RU 486 IS a Chemical Weapon. Continue Reading... FRIDAY HOMILY - Discipleship: It Only Takes a Spark By Fr. Randy Sly | September 13, 2013 One of the stark realities of parenthood, as well as other areas of influence, is that we are role models.
