Everyone: You might check the left side bar for a link about the pilgrimage to Rome I am going to be helping out in November.
I got a not today that the early registration rate might still be available.
About this blog…
“This blog is 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

This REALLY helps! And it’s great coffee (and tea)
I use this when I travel both in these USA and abroad. Very useful. Fast enough for Zoom. I connect my DMR (ham radio) through it. If you use my link, they give me more data. A GREAT back up.
This blog has to earn its keep!
PLEASE subscribe via PayPal if it is useful.
That way I have steady income I can plan on, and you wind up regularly on my list of benefactors for whom I pray and for whom I periodically say Holy Mass.
In view of the rapidly changing challenges I now face, I would like to add more $10/month subscribers. Will you please help?

If you travel internationally, this is a super useful gizmo for your mobile internet data. I use one. If you get one through my link, I get data rewards.

Father:
This is slightly off-topic, but will you be in Rome in the middle of October at the same time as the 20th Anniversary of the FSSP? I will be there then, so if so, it would be good meet in person.
If I didn’t have a my friends’ wedding on Oct. 31st and had some money I would so be on that trip. One of these days I’ll get back to Rome, but for now I will have to live by and with my memories of World Youth Day 2000 and a class trip with Seton Hall in 2001.
Even more off topic, but Mark – you’re attending the FSSP celebrations? This UKer is thinking of attending as well! Another Pontifical High Mass with Card Castrillon-Hoyos. Heh.
Fr Z – are you planning on being there?
Yes, I am, Justin! I am going with Fr Emerson (FSSP) and a bunch of Edinburgh Uni students… :-D
