Not Helping!
Posted by Rebecca Teti in News on Wednesday, January 18, 2012 5:00 PM
I doubt this audience needs any persuading that women can do better than abortion, but here is some grim evidence anyway.
This is the advice Fund Abortion Now is giving women about how to pay for their abortions.
Some of it is sensible economizing.
Some of it is desperate measures anyone truly poor might take to cover an unexpected expense (pawning goods, volunteering for medical experiments).

Deviled Eggs Dressed Up
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Wednesday, January 18, 2012 9:00 AM
Smitten Kitchen is my favorite food blog, and last month she had recipe for Caesar salad deviled eggs that I bookmarked immediately. Then I got busy with cooking for Christmas and forgot all about it.
Fast forward to January when - having resolved to add protein to my diet - I pulled the recipe up again, only to discover upon careful reading that it’s fairly fussy. It involves two pans and a mixing... READ MORE

Holy AND Healthy
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Health on Tuesday, January 17, 2012 11:25 AM
For all of those who read and chimed in on my recent post about my efforts to get healthier in 2012, it looks like we’re in good company! I enjoyed reading this article in the New York Daily News about the efforts Cardinal-designate Archbishop Timothy Dolan is making to lose weight and become more fit. The Archbishop has a few advantages most of us don’t—a medically supervised regimen and a private... READ MORE

Dr. King & Turning The Other Cheek
Posted by Rebecca Teti in News on Monday, January 16, 2012 6:58 PM
Though it’s late in the day, I wanted to honor the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr., and I couldn’t do better than this short presentation from Fr. Barron.
He works it all in: King’s Christian commitment; his “re-founding” of America by recalling it to the principles of the Declaration; his magnificent oratory.
In particular I call your attention to his teaching on what “turn the other cheek” means.
It is not a call to let wickedness run roughshod over us, but on the contrary, a summons to stiff spines and firm endurance: “that wickedness shall not stand on my watch.”
Watch and enjoy!
And on this holiday in his honor, may we forgive Dr. King his failings and have a measure of his strength and courage in the moral battles of our generation.
Catholic School Closings
Posted by Lisa Hendey in News on Monday, January 16, 2012 11:29 AM
I’ve been watching and praying for the situation in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, where a Blue Ribbon Commission on Catholic Education recently issued a report which will result in the closing and consolidation of many of the Archdiocese’s Catholic schools.
This morning, I spent some time reading Archbishop Chaput’s message following up on the commission’s recommendations and the response the... READ MORE
