We have some good things going on where I am.
For example, there is a new chapter of EnCourage forming in the Diocese of Madison. HERE
Tonight we have a Sung Mass for All Saints at 6:30 at St. Mary’s in Pine Bluff.
Tomorrow, All Souls, The Extraordinary Ordinary, Bishop Morlino will celebrate a Pontifical Requiem at the Throne for the deceased priests of the diocese. That Mass, at 7:00 PM, will be at the chapel of Holy Name Heights.

My beautiful daughter came into this world ten years ago today. ’Nuff said for a good day!
Fr. Z and JustaSinner: Excellent.
Doesn’t compare to Church and Child, but: Deo Gratias for Big Sky Country and ranch steak.
Johnny Mercer wrote a song during the turbulent year of 1944, here it’s sung by the incomparable Ella Fitzgerald:
https://youtube.com/watch?v=V_JxgAU84-k
Gather ’round me, everybody
Gather ’round me while I preach some
Feel a sermon comin’ on me
The topic will be sin
And that’s what I’m agin
If you want to hear my story
Then settle back and just sit tight
While I start reviewing
The attitude of doing right
You got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
E-lim-i-nate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
Don’t mess with mister inbetween
Deo Gratias for Big Band. One more, a Glenn Miller classic:

“Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the Earth; break forth into joyous song and sing praises!
“Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre, with trumpets and the sound of the horn and the saxophone…”
(Ok, that last one Tracer Bullet insisted. He’s getting a little “ranch happy” and is thinking of swapping his trenchcoat for a Duster.)
