Have I been Slacker Blogger or What???

Well I haven't been doing too much out here in "Blogger World"
I have been reading and doing my usual Lenten prayers.
Not too much else!

I ask for you to keep my Mom in your prayers who has been practically bed ridden for the past seven weeks. She has just been able to get out for Sunday Mass in the past two weeks and she pays the price for it for several days at least.

This has all be due to a problem with her back. She is seeing a new doctor this week coming up and will hopefully be getting some injections to help illeviate her pain and make her more mobile

She has had a rough beginning to the year. Last year she had two heart attacks.
She doesn't complain a bit. A real trooper

I will try to become a better blogger after Lent, lol

Hope all of you are doing well???

Pass the word along!!!!

Holy Trinity in Boston, Now has the Traditional Mass again!!
February 10th at 9:00am

They have been without this Mass for a long time.
It is now earlier in the day as well, allowing for folks to start there day out with Mass early instead of waiting all day to go to Mass.

See how the triumphant hand of Our Blessed Mother prevails!!!

Respect and Traditionalism

I have been involved in some discussions lately on respect, especially in the instances of women.

It seems that murders involving women have been a huge topic of discussion, that seems to have people questioning the safety and respect of human life

Maria Lauterbach was a young pregnant marine who lost her life violently, as well as the life of her unborn baby.

There was an incident in a town close to where I live, where two men raped and murdered a doctor's wife and his two daughters

In the discussions I have been involved in, opened the oppportunity for me to bring up our faith and the respect which Our Lord has for His Mother and how men should model His example.

Also in reference to respectability, how the Catholic faith has the only two examples of respect for both species of the sexes.


Mary is our model for woman and Jesus for our men

If we follow that love and respect that they had for each other then there wouldn't be any senseless murders or disrespect for human beings at all.

It is seen especially in the Traditional Mass. Altar servers assisting women from the altar rails after receiving communion is a prime example of treating a woman like a "lady". Now that is respect.
Do you see this occur anywhere else?
Of course also, we see in our churches how the mother of a bride and bridegroom is walked down the aisle.

Woman who wear veils or head coverings show the respect for Jesus, and in turn we also get respect, respect that we deserve. We are not distractions when we cover one of our most precious and beautiful aspects of our womanhood. Instead we focus on what we are in that church for, and that is praise and worship of God.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

We all tend to be very busy at least I know I have been.

I would like to take the time to wish all a Very Merry Christmas

We have been very blessed with the Motu Proprio this year and I have enjoyed watching the expansion of The Mass.

Connecticut has been very blessed with wonderful priests here that are willing to say the Traditional Mass for us

We have been given a wonderful "early" Christmas present, Thanks to our Holy Father.
Please keep him in your daily prayers along with our priests, who are extremely busy at this time of the year.

So as all of us are busy with preparations for Christmas please don't forget to remember those less fortunate, those suffering from illness or depression or financial difficulties and may be unemployed
We may not be able to give monetarily, but our prayers are so much more the beneficial for them.

God Bless and Merry Christmas and A Very Happy New year!

Preparing For Christmas

Everywhere we go we see signs at this time of the year, letting us know how many shopping days are left until Christmas.

Every Year that goes by we are reminded of how to be "politically correct" in regard to the "Holidays".

Now we wouldn't want to offend anyone now would we
Can't put a creche up at work, now certain places can't have a "Christmas Tree".

Well I am offended and that doesn't matter though, does it?
Most Christians would agree with me that "Christmas" is not celebrated correctly

Heck, most Catholics don't prepare properly either and get caught up in the materialism of the Season

Prepare for the coming of the Lord.
What happened to "good old prayer"

Do we have Advent Wreaths in our homes and a Jesse Tree possibly?

Those are much more important than those despicable blow up lawn decorations that I despise
I tell people that I wish I had one of those dart shooters and every lawn displaying those despicable sights I could pop them as I drive by, putting a whole new meaning to "drive by shootings", lol

Oh and if I see "Merry X-Mas" I just want to scream!!!!!

I suggest that we establish family prayer and maybe on Christmas day having a cake and singing "Happy Birthday to Jesus". Let's give our children the right message.

Here below just gives some things that you and your family can do to prepare for the birth of Our Savior
Fish Eaters has some great stuff. alos there are feast days to be observed and don't forforget that Christmas doesn't end after we open our gifts on Christmas Day
Don't take those trees down yet!

And speaking of that beautiful young woman!!!
Happy Birthday to you, today at the wonderful age of 19.....and as you make your Mom older and older...Thanks!! LOL
