“This blog is rather like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” - Fr. Z

Vivat! Vivat! Vivat Pastor Bonus!
Happy name day to our Papa Benedetto…. baptismal name, that is!
What you said, William!
Also happy National Patron Day to all Canadian readers-St. Joseph is the Patron Saint of Canada.
Happy name day to the Holy Father!
May Almighty God bless our Holy Father! We are blessed to have such a wonderful Pope!
Thank you father for setting up the bouquet for our Holy Father! Happy Father’s Day!
Benedicto Sexto Decimo,
Summo Pontífici
et universáli Papæ,
pax, vita et salus perpétua!
Témpora bona véniant,
pax Christi véniat,
regnum Christi véniat.
Ecce Fidelis servus et prudens,
Behold, the faithful and wise Servant
Quem constituit Dominus super familiam suam.
Whom the Lord places over his family.
Justus germinabit sicut lilium
Just, he will grow like the lily
Et florebit in aeternum ante Dominum.
And flourish eternally before the Lord.

Happy Name Day Josef Ratzinger. Josef was also my Great-grandfather’s name who was an immigrant from Germany.
My brother also shares this name day. Not bad company, eh?
