RECENT POSTS and THANKS to Readers!

Some of you have been kind enough post greetings for my 20th anniversary of ordination. I am very grateful for your prayers and other gestures and greetings including donations.

Some of you have sent donations, particularly as a mark of protest against the openly heretical recent editorial in the Fishwrap. How long, O Lord? Pray that they either convert, which is preferable, or that they go down.

Since the last time and for the next Mass I say for benefactors… and Fishwrap or Bitter Pill protesters, I have added the following names:

TR, JH, Fr. RB, WH,
DM, JHE, TR, MR, HM,
AB, CG, ELM, MS, MR,
GM, KA, LF, MS, IH, JK

I happily send thank also to the kind soul who sent the book about the always fascinating Galileo. It was on my wishlist. Also, thanks to THS for a new book about WWII called The Storm of War by Andrew Roberts. Thanks as well to DB for the Moleskeine notebooks. I am trying to develop some discipline in using a Commonplace Book.

It is a duty and privilege to pray for benefactors.
