I Just Want to be Fed
I Just Want to be Fed
By Lorrie McNickle
"I just want to be fed", my Catholic friend bemoaned to me. I hear this a lot from my fellow Catholics. I also have witnessed many of my former classmates from Catholic School leave the Faith for other denominations. I would imagine that they left for similar reasons as the statement above.

Blessed Journey
Blessed Journey
By The Prayerful Pilgrim
Life is a gift and it is a journey. There are those you journey with, some for a long period and some short, but each of us is called to a specific vocation which is ours alone.

Faith In Action--Love In Correction (Nagging wives, take note)
Faith In Action--Love In Correction (Nagging wives, take note)
By Rose Cuervo
Truly when one is suffering from sin, until one achieves true and deep repentance, the accusations and condemning will be there, sometimes it will stay after Confession, for us to reflect some more the gravity of what we committed so we will be convicted to not do it again.

By Kaity Jones
I am impatient and stubborn. My best friend and I say that’s why we’re still friends because we refuse to give up on the other. Patience was one of those lessons I hated learning and God so loves teaching them to me. The most effective way and obvious way to learn this incredible gift is the most frustrating, waiting. We must sit and do nothing and wait for God to move.

2 Causes behind Courthouse Weddings
By Melanie R. Cameron
Interviewing multiple couples who married at the courthouse, eloped, or had a very small ceremony at a family's home, this article asks the ultimate question that I consider a very good question to ask when first planning a wedding: "Who is it for, ultimately?"
