Let us pray…
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of They people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.Help Monks in Wyoming, Fr. Z, and get great coffee too!
Food For Thought
“The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being.”- St. John Paul II
How about Rome in October?

More food for thought:
“I expect to die in bed, my successor will die in prison and his successor will die a martyr in the public square. His successor will pick up the shards of a ruined society and slowly help rebuild civilization, as the church has done so often in human history.”

Even More Food For Thought
"Men by their constitutions are naturally divided into two parties: 1. Those who fear and distrust the people, and wish to draw all powers from them into the hands of the higher classes. 2. Those who identify themselves with the people, have confidence in them, cherish and consider them as the most honest and safe, although not the most wise depositary of the public interests."- Thomas Jefferson to Henry Lee, 1824.

Do the download stats include the iTunes downloads? Since that seems fixed now, I would expect fewer downloads direct from the blog.
Emilio: I can count stats from various ways people listen.
I liked the Harvest Moon podcazt very much!
Always behind on downloading, but I can’t leave St. Pope Gregory standing there like a wallflower at the school dance. Thanks for the reminder. Father.
I loved it
I listened to it!
I can’t imagine why not. As I said earlier, I enjoyed it very much.
I loved it, Father. I lost some time when the iTunes feed was broken but I’ve caught back up again.
Actually, Pope St. Gregory is the greatest (unless it’s Pope St. Leo). And so your podcazts on their LOH readings are great stuff.
Excellent podcast. The quote from St Augustine on speaking even if his flock does not listen is quite touching.
Father, with this particular podcast, I would suggest you ask your priest readership if they have listened to it. While there are a lot of good insights for the laity, I got the impression that the overall message was aimed more toward pastors of souls.
I’ll try to download it for one of my parish priests.
In Christ,
