"We Are All Nuns"...

An editorial in the New York Times claims that "we are all nuns". Really?

I am sorry for Mr. Kristof and all those who are misinterpreting what the Pope is asking for and instead pit him against all women. He (Kristof)is doing the Church and all religious a disservice. The reformation for the LCWR is more about healing and love than anything else! The Church doesn't deny that these women have done great things for the poor but, (and this is a reminder to ALL Christians we ha)ve to preach the ENTIRE gospel of Jesus Christ and not just the parts we are comfortable with or are most socially acceptable. Thank you sister for addressing this. Let's pray that the women religious see this as a manifestation of God's love for them - that He never forgets us nor fosakes us, but always calls us to a deeper communion with Him.

It is with a heavy and incredulous heart that I post the news that our beloved Father, Fr. Santan Pinto, died suddenly in a car accident after just arriving for a home visit in India. Apparently, Fr. Pinto was the passenger in a car that was struck and he died instantly. A Bishop in India, the Bishop of Belgaum, has contacted our community and confirmed this sorrowful news. Fr. Pinto's funeral will be tomorrow in India. It's interesting, you know, after just posting Father's Christmas message yesterday and then posting the clip by Fr. Barron about the true nature of Advent, we never know when God will take us home. The media and secular society loves to mock celibacy and the priesthood but it's easy to see that Fr. Pinto has more spiritual children than those people ever will. God will not be mocked. Father was a priest who was faithful to the end, who loved God more than anything and made countless sacrifices for his many spiritual children. To say that he will b...
