Pre-Lenten Praise and Worship

Reblogged from Catholibertarian:

The past few days I have been sick and am so sorry that I haven’t made my blog rounds in recent days.  I felt better today so Kevin and I took the opportunity to travel to Steubenville, OH (about a 45 minute drive from where we live) to attend a Rick Santorum rally.  I had been wanting to see him in person so it was awesome to be able to see Rick today.

I just have to share this--it hearkens to my own experience just a few short weeks ago here in MN, just before the "sudden Santorum surge" all over the country--which my state led the way on, by the way:). God is definitely good all the time. Blessings to Teresa Rice for this post!

I also wish to take this President's Day opportunity to share something I discovered lately, and that is the real meaning of Rick Santorum's last name.  I do so because certain folks, in the name of satire or crass humor, have misused it mercilessly in the past few years. But it is Latin for the "Holy of Holies." And whatever you may think of his political views, this man is arguably one of the holiest and yet down-to-earth Catholic Christians out there by anyone's standards. I am proud to share his first name, and would be equally proud to share his last one as well. I support him all the way.

Hed: Checking the Air Outside

By Bishop David A. Zubik from the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh 

I have a friend who smokes. Like most smokers I know, he’s not very proud of it. Whenever he has to have a cigarette, he excuses himself by saying that he is going to be “checking the air outside” for a few minutes. I hope and pray that the day will come soon when he manages to quit.
