Credo Catholic: Answering God's call to holiness and mission
http://credocatholic.blogspot.com/2011/03/answering-gods-call-to-holiness-and.html
Celebrating faith and fidelity to Christ and His Church. Monday, March 7, 2011. Answering God's call to holiness and mission. Because of the gift her blog, Summons of a Wayfarer. I have gotten to follow her on the journey from her feeling God’s tug at her heart, through her narrowing down the missionary organizations, all the way up to her current status. She is preparing to go to Thailand as a member of the organization, Heart’s Home. It’s exciting to see a young person so profoundly living out. Please ...

Credo Catholic: The womanly art of being a nag
http://credocatholic.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-womanly-art-of-being-nag.html
Celebrating faith and fidelity to Christ and His Church. Monday, November 3, 2014. The womanly art of being a nag. Probably one of the most devastating things I've heard in the course of this whole Brittany Maynard situation came from the lips of her mother. "It’s not my job to tell her how to live, and it’s not my job to tell her how to die.". I suspect that St. Monica was also a nag. I'm sure that it frustrated Augustine to have this "crazy" lady showing up in places and weeping over his soul&#...We ar...

Credo Catholic: Prayer as foundation for action
http://credocatholic.blogspot.com/2014/11/prayer-as-foundation-for-action.html
Celebrating faith and fidelity to Christ and His Church. Monday, November 24, 2014. Prayer as foundation for action. What we sometimes forget is that our actions should flow from our prayer life, our rich union with God, who renews our intentions and focuses us to order our actions according to a holy priority. It is this relationship with God that is so vital to our relationships with others. Is still in the machine. Dirty pans with crusted food fill a sink that makes it difficult to maneuver even g...

Credo Catholic: Happy New Year...pass the celery
http://credocatholic.blogspot.com/2011/01/happy-new-yearpass-celery.html
Celebrating faith and fidelity to Christ and His Church. Saturday, January 8, 2011. Happy New Year.pass the celery. It is very interesting, culturally speaking, that we have placed SUCH an emphasis upon New Year’s resolutions. We roll off our couches every January 1 and make the commitment to.well, mostly lose weight. It makes me think about a movie I watched with my children entitled. So I’ll be chewing on this advice to myself while I’m gnawing on my celery and sweating on a treadmill. I always roll my...

Credo Catholic: The loving gift of authority
http://credocatholic.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-loving-gift-of-authority.html
Celebrating faith and fidelity to Christ and His Church. Wednesday, November 12, 2014. The loving gift of authority. Why would I call my dad an authoritarian? I am blessed with a husband who sees love in law, freedom in structure, and mercy in justice. I listen to him as he imparts this wisdom to our children during their tutorial sessions for home instruction. I praise the Lord that He has given me this gentle, humble, holy, and strong man to lead our family. It is as Christ had intended. Charity and au...

Credo Catholic: Following Jesus' example of pastoral action as the Good Shepherd
http://credocatholic.blogspot.com/2014/10/following-jesus-example-of-pastoral.html
Celebrating faith and fidelity to Christ and His Church. Monday, October 13, 2014. Following Jesus' example of pastoral action as the Good Shepherd. Labels: Extraordinary Synod on the Family. October 14, 2014 at 5:43 AM. This is a great insight: This is a great good, but it is also a risk in our modern time, since so many of the sheep are misguided and a great number of the shepherds have decided to follow where the sheep decide to go.

Credo Catholic: Veronica's veil
http://credocatholic.blogspot.com/2014/11/veronicas-veil.html
Celebrating faith and fidelity to Christ and His Church. Thursday, November 20, 2014. In recent years, many Catholics have become increasingly aware of the Church's humanness. The Church, as being fully divine and fully human, certainly has its times when the divinity is obscured by the humanity as seen in its flaws and weaknesses. He was also betrayed. And beaten. And scourged. And mocked. And hated. A woman named Veronica, overwhelmed by her sorrow at his frailty, removed her own veil to uncover the gl...
