Long time no typing...patron saint for lazy bloggers?
Outraced by the calendar. Tomorrow is another day...with a profusion of forerunners.

14/9/2013

..patron saint of lost patience? lost passwords ...Quiet morn the afternoon flared from Smashing Pumpkins to Iron Maiden via O'Riley. It's my life...stuck ...all the best U2. Trust he understands. Catholicfroggie he called me.

Nailed down to  prayer in the midts of the mayhem...

Bounced off and on  to twitter. Double find  a post turned into a spot on reply to a timely line. Grazie.

A chi conosce i limiti e a chi li supera, a chi limita e a chi è limitato, a chi si limita a subire e a chi spera senza limiti,

To those who know their limits and overcome them, to those limiting, to those limiting themselves to being subjected and those hoping without limits.

Eye turned left...what really should be my signature

The Lord catches you on the rebound. Unfailiably.

So I sit on this shared cyber leaf catching what comes. For the time being. Who knows what the future has in stock?

With a fioretto. Ten daily minutes for praying the Divine Mercy chaplet. For vocations and familial purgatory.

Eulalia of Merida

Not that we wish this legislation to pass, but, in the dire eventuality it does...if all American women took example from that young virgin of old times who, in the face of the threatening judge, stamped over the cake offering to the false gods, contraception being today the devilish imposed offer.

Arnold

Backsainting the day I skipped.Not sure which one it is. To you the choice!

Apollonia

 Looting. Rioting. Christians persecuted and threatened of being burned alive unless they blasphemed their beliefs. That happened in 246 too.

Can we not stand up to peers laughing mockery?

 With all our shining teeth - yes, I forgot to say that this aged woman lost hers to the attackers'blows.

Josephine Bhakita

Woman.  African. Slave. Traded between various owners, she died in 1947. Suffered torture. A time long past and yet how many girls are tortured today enslaved to family traditions?

Paul Miki and companions

 First Japanese martyrs in Japan. 16th hundred. Yet today, you can mark on yor maps more than one area in the world covered with the blood of courageous priests. Like don...

Have you got other real life contemporary stories to share in your parishes and seminaries?

 Have you thought of posting by the Adoration Chapel a map with those areas marked with the offering chalice?

Agatha

 Any explosive situation about to blow up in your parish? or diocesis? Invoke her. As she was to stop Etna eruptions.

sabato 4 febbraio 2012

New updates long overdue..catching up from February 1st.

Verdiana
Hermit woman, after a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela  asked to be enclosed in her cell by a wall.

Presentation of the Lord
Mary the Ark of the New Covenant hosting the Word incarnated  presents him on the altar of the old one. The first act of reparation aware of Isaiah's prophecies? (http://www.christendom-awake.org/pages/united-hearts/reparation.htm)

Blaise
Aside from invoking him to deliver priests from thorn in the side parishioners...maybe the suggestion is to offer it all up?

Gilbert of Semprinham
Bishop. 'Walled' a group of women into monastic life and started off a monastery of male Canon Regulars separate yet united by the same spirit. Then nunneries and monasteries sprouted in abundance.
