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

Beautiful and above all strong rosaries
I keep my eye open for nice rosaries, probably because I have a penchant for giving them away. Years ago I encouraged a member of the old COL Forum on Compuserve to start a rosary making business. Her work was … Read More
