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. Zelle and Wise are better, but PayPal is convenient.
A monthly subscription donation means I have steady income I can plan on. I put you my list of benefactors for whom I pray and for whom I often 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?
For a one time donation...
To donate monthly I prefer Zelle because it doesn't extract fees. Use

PLEASE RESPOND. Pretty pleeeease?
Loading ...This is really useful when travelling… and also when you aren’t and you need backup internet NOW! I use this for my DMR “Zednet” hotspot when I’m mobile. It’s a ham radio thing.
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.

Happy Birthday Father!
Thank you, Father, for linking to my blog.
As near as I can tell your post does not have a hyperlink to my blog.
The address, for your readers, is: http://www.kansascatholic.blogspot.com
Thanks, again.
KC: Corrected.
Happy B day Fr. What is the primary function of the Knights of Colombus? Secondly, does anyone know where to go to find funds to go to the seminary?
“What is the primary function of the Knights of Colombus?”
The mutual aid and spiritual development of its members.
“Secondly, does anyone know where to go to find funds to go to the seminary?”
Most seminarians are funded by their Bishops, either outright, or an agreement to repay loans in the seminarians name over time.
Could someone please point me to an explanation of the letters in sand on the floor? I find this enormously intriguing. (Or someone could just explain it for all the curious.) Thanks.
Mary Jane, there are a couple of posts in the New Liturgical Movement blog about this. http://www.newliturgicalmovement.org/2008/10/consecration-of-old-st-patricks-oratory.html and a more recent one showing a larger scale version.
Could you please tell us who is incharge of this beautiful CHurch, and give some information on the restoration done there!?!
