Almost-Empty-Nest Mom & a Mother's Rule

Below is the closing paragraph to my comment to a post on Holly Pierlot's blog - A Mothers Rule of Life: How to Bring Order to Your Home and Peace to Your Soul

Finally I want to say as we get older, time passses more quickly and we move more slowly. It is a time where it does not seem we will be able to accomplish all we have to do, but provided we keep our focus on God and accomplishing his will in our lives we can be certain we are headed in the right direction.

How does one sum up the papal visit in a few words? A survey of the four days, event by event – four days which began (so far as I am concerned) in anxiety which quickly turned to relief and ended finally in euphoria – simply can’t be done in less than the length of a short book, and I have only 400 or 500 words for this post, though in the print edition of the paper which appears later this week I shall be given more than double the space for an extended version of it, in which I shall look also at the very interesting coverage of the visit by the secular media. That aspect of the visit will have to be briefly summarised here by the words of Dr George Carey in the News of the World: “he came, he saw, he conquered”. more

Excerpt from Miracles of Jesus (DVD): The Wedding at Cana

An Out-of-Touch Ogre?

"I am gravely concerned by the fact that an abortion was performed several months ago in a Catholic hospital in this diocese. I am further concerned by the hospital’s statement that the termination of a human life was necessary to treat the mother’s underlying medical condition.

An unborn child is not a disease. While medical professionals should certainly try to save a pregnant mother’s life, the means by which they do it can never be by directly killing her unborn child. The end does not justify the means.

Every Catholic institution is obliged to defend human life at all its stages; from conception to natural death. This obligation is also placed upon every Catholic individual. If a Catholic formally cooperates in the procurement of an abortion, they are automatically excommunicated by that action. The Catholic Church will continue to defend life and proclaim the evil of abortion without compromise, and must act to correct even her own members if they fail in this duty…." Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted of Phoenix
