Help Me Get One More
By Dr. Lin Weeks Wilder
Once I viewed the previews of Mel Gibson’s new film, Hackshaw Ridge, I decided not to see it. The luridly graphic war images were far too off-putting. Until a Franciscan priest friend told me that he planned to see it as soon as he could opened.

Why the Doctors will be Wounded if an Assisted Suicide Bill is Passed
By Rose Cuervo
I wrote ten things that will affect the doctor mentality once the assisted suicide bill is passed including the permission to lie, kill, be amoral. I was able to capture it so swiftly and easily to advocate against it, because I know my peers quite well, I know myself, my milieu, I know how very dangerous power can infect a doctor already primed for certain actions.

What is it about that Halo on the saints?
By Amelia Monroe Carlson
The paintings of our saints are gorgeous. Some of them can bring emotions out inside us that seem to transport us back to a time, a place where we would want to just sit and listen to them teach us. But, have you noticed the Halo around the head of the saints? Sure you have. But, have you ever asked yourself if it has a particular meaning?

The Mystical Body of Christ: One Body, One Spirit
By Jonathan Hayes
Now that we see our union with each other and our union with Christ, it is important to ask the final question: how does this affect my relationship with Christ? What does it truly mean in practice and in life to be a member of this Mystical Body?

By Shaun Johnson
Recently in our area of ministry at St. Norbert College two departments merged into one under a new name.

The Power of Perserverance
By Alan Scott
One of the things I would like to deny about myself (but can’t) is that I have a tendency to bail on things. Actually, my perseverance skills sometimes really stink.

Jesus wants me to be a true Christian.
By Kathy Lamb

Mixed Up Catherine

Co-Workers with the Lord
By Trish Irvine
It is through the Lord providing the sun, rain, and nutrients that we have the grapes of the vine. But the work does not all fall on God. We tend to the vines, we harvest the grapes, we change them from simple fruit into wine. Then we offer it back to the Lord and He transforms it into something far beyond us.

How to Pray the Rosary for America
By Amelia Monroe Carlson
With this Election being one of the nastiest, hateful, and mean elections experienced in a very long time, let’s remember this election is about more than putting a new president in the White House. There are many congressmen up for re-election, local and state leaders, and some amendments in many areas that citizens will be voting on.

Asking Questions
By Mariel Roersma
When I get to Heaven, one of the first things I want to do is ask God the many questions I want answers too. And I'm sure I'm not alone. We all have those questions about faith, about our world, about His will that we wish we had the answers too now. We wonder about why this happened this way, and why our world is so full of evil. We wonder about so many things and wish God had a phone number.

I was raised to love my country, to serve her, to pray for her, to guide her and her citizens in any way I could. My parents, grandparents, and great grandparents always told us how blessed we were to be Americans, how proud we should be that we are citizens of a great, shining beacon of hope.

Assisted Suicide Kills Quality Of Life, Not Just Patients And Healers
By Rose Cuervo
Derek Humphrey, the founder of Compassion and Choices, has killed his first wife by his own account. As drugs are weak and even now, known to be generally ineffective in death (as evidenced by so many living drug addicts), he instead took a pillow to finish the act.
