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

Father, your Christmas cards are getting sent next week. Sorry, no kids’ art as we two are all their is. However, my attempts at drawing have been said to be pre-kindergarten. I hope you enjoy the packet. Also, anytime you intone the “Oremus . . . ” or begin a Chant, I go back to happier, holier, days of long ago. Your voice is of a tone and structure that is perfect for Liturgical Latin. Thank you for your comments, insights, and, yes, witty sarcasm and good old hilarity!
I’m surprised that you haven’t received mine by now. I’m sure that there are many in the queue waiting for delivery.
Sue: It’s possible that I missed one or two. Drop me a line with your city? Also, the mail is really slow this year.
