Recently my Men’s Bible Study Group discussed the idea of meeting with other Christian based Bible Study Groups.  The purpose of such a meeting would be for (1) enhancing faith (2) finding like-minded projects (3) developing fellowship in Christ.

But being a Catholic comes with certain responsibilities such as finding Truth, Beauty and Love in all things.  Regarding Catholic-Christian Mixers, the Truth part is downright tough because as Catholics we will eventually get around to…

A Companion of the Cross

It was almost a year ago when I ran across an exhibition of relics on the internet that was being sponsored by a community of priests and brothers called “Companions of the Cross.” I don’t know why but at the time I was deeply drawn to them so I started looking over their site at http://www.companionscross.org/. I had been discerning a calling to join a lay apostolate for some time (year’s…

2012 has been pretty good so far and I am really looking forward to the moment when “real spring” shows itself in the buds of the trees and the new grasses. The wildflowers are blooming now so I can actually feel it right around the corner. My new projects though starting out slowly do show promise in the future and I do have many more things to accomplish this year but I must say that all in all I am comfortable with everything.

My biggest project though will be my small…

As a Catholic I have heard about suffering all of my life. I never though gave it any real thought outside of Christ’s Passion until I was diagnosed with cancer and really started feeling the pain of this horrible disease.

“Now I rejoice in my suffering for your sake, and in my flesh and I am filling up what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ on behalf of His body which is the Church, of which I am a minister in accordance with God’s stewardship given to me to bring to…

Be Resolved to Commit Yourself to Defeating the Evil Among Us





In the manner you choose, do not sit idly by while society degrades.  The evildoers exploit public morality and common decency. Long-accepted standards of tradition and public civility are ridiculed every day by hedonists without any regard for the consequence. Once again, in your method of choice, subtle or not so, stand on principle.

Defend the Truth...Defend the Faith.



  Be Resolved to commit YOURSELF…

I remember back in 1997 my mother came over to the house and dropped off some groceries (she was always doing this) and told me that we needed to talk. After we had settled into a couple of recliners she told me, “I saw the doctor today and was told that I have lung cancer.” It was just like that, straight faced with no noticeable despair nothing. Me I just kind of stared at her wondering just what the hell she could possibly be talking about, CANCER? Who? After about a solid minute my mind…
