The Upside Down World of Scouting: How It Affects Family
The Upside Down World of Scouting: How It Affects Family
By Birgit Jones
Today’s world of scouting certainly isn’t that of your parents’ day! The Girl Scouts of the United States of America (GSUSA) are in cahoots with abortion giant Planned Parenthood, and there is a push within the Boy Scouts of America (GSA) for openly homosexual leaders. As it is, they already accept openly gay scouts into the fold.

Dress For Mass
Dress For Mass
By Debra Booton McCoy
This is the month of May, the month of Mary. It is a time when we could reflect on how much we are emulating our Holy Mother. Since children take after their parents, we should take after our Mother in her virtues of patience, modesty and faith.

"Free-Range Parenting"---Another Ingredient in the Crock-Pot of Progressive Balderdash
"Free-Range Parenting"---Another Ingredient in the Crock-Pot of Progressive Balderdash
By Larry Peterson
I grew up in the south Bronx of the 1950s and 60s. We kids in the neighborhood (and there were many kids in the neighborhood) would get home from school sometime around 3 p.m. Most of us went to St. Angela Merici Catholic School which was also the local parish.

The Great Romance
The Great Romance
By Nancy Marie Murray
In the beginning, God spoke one Word into the eternal silence and thus all creation came into being. In all the vastness of creation, only man was created in God’s image. The first man, Adam, given authority to name the animals and finding none among them like himself, became deeply aware of his solitude.

The Song Remains the Same
The Song Remains the Same
By John C Prejean Sr.
Tonight at Mass (Saturday Vigil Mass), I was giving a very short presentation about the men's group in our area (The King’s Men) and the retreat that we will be having in June (Into the Wild) in Show Low, AZ when I noticed the almighty mass exodus…those who leave before communion or right after or during my presentation. I thought to myself “and the race is on.”

Gratitude Attitude
Gratitude Attitude
By Carolyn Astfalk
This article was born while I changed a poopy diaper. Not so surprising since I do a lot of that. As is sometimes the case, my toddler fought my effort to make him clean, pleasant-smelling, and rash-free by flailing around, threatening to inadvertently smear feces over everything within heiney's reach.

What Holds The World Together
What Holds The World Together
By Judy Landrieu Klein
Cut away the umbilical cord, but don’t cut away the heart. Because the heart—the feminine heart—helps hold the world together. I watched today with tears in my eyes as the women of the Our Lady of the Lake Altar Society processed up the center aisle of the church, carrying roses and bouquets for the annual May crowning while singing hymns to Our Lady.

Choosing Love Over Death
Choosing Love Over Death
By Mary Ann Gambill
We live with pain just over the horizon. It's there. It never goes away or even fades. It sometimes peeks through, over the hills, and washes over us unexpectedly. It can take our breath away. It can catch us when we round a bend or cross a path, without warning or mercy.

Seven Last Words of Christ - Part 3
Seven Last Words of Christ - Part 3
By Chick Todd
Reflecting on the third Friday of Lent, we continue with the Seven Words of Christ. In this scene at the foot of the Cross, Mary the Mother of Jesus, the Apostle John, and other women who were friends and supporters of Jesus and the Disciples are near enough to the Cross that they can see and hear Jesus and he can see them.

Husband and Wife: Complementarity and Timeless Truth
By Arnold Scott
Amid our culture’s increasing chaos regarding natural law, gender, marriage and other topics which are crucial for society and authentic human development, the Catholic Church stands out as “the pillar and bulwark of truth.” (1 Timothy 3:15) Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has shown a great commitment to Church teaching about marriage and family.
