I Watched in Awe as the Priest Stepped into the Sandals of Christ
By Larry Peterson
Being Catholic has so many perks that non-Catholics will never understand. We have Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, we have the Real Presence, we have Benediction, May processions, The Blessed Virgin Mary, canonized saints, Eucharistic miracles.

Day 177 – APPOINTED by the churches
By David Vermont

By Kim-Thérèse Lee
Pictured similarly to our Blessed Mother, the Most Holy Virgin Mary, because of the veil, Santa Muerte is a mockery and the total opposite. Literally translated as “Saint Death” or more commonly known as “our Lady of the Holy Death”, this fake “saint” has been dangerously accredited to demonic activity in the lives of many.

Who Loses Eighty Pounds Getting Washed?
By Rev. John H. Hampsch, C.M.F
The Statue of Liberty loses eight pounds each day by copper loss from annual rainfall. Each raindrop erodes only an infinitesimal bit of copper from Lady Liberty. But, as the dictum has it, "many bits make a big bite."

By Trish Irvine
Over three years ago, I filled a hiking backpack, flew to Europe, and walked El Camino de Santiago. The first day on the Camino, though difficult, was exhilarating. We walked from the beautiful little town of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port in France, over the Pyrenees, and into Roncesvalles in Spain.
