Mother Angelica: Life-long Catholic - The Journey Home
EWTN ^ | 140916 | Marcus Grodi / Mother Angelica

Posted on 02/25/2015 4:30:29 AM PST by Arthur McGowan

Mother Angelica joins Marcus for the 4th Anniversary episode of the Journey Home Program. Mother Angelica was born Rita Antoinette Rizzo, in 1923, in Canton, Ohio. In 1944, she joined the contemplative order of the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration. After a severe back injury, she told God that if she could walk after the surgery, she would build Him a monastery in the South. True to her word and God's goodness, the surgery was a success. The new Mother Angelica and five founding Sisters made the journey South. Our Lady of the Angels Monastery was solemnly consecrated on May 2, 1962. In 1980, a garage behind the monastery was converted into a television studio. The Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN) signed on August 15, 1981.

dear campion,

I said: “I get billed for that cable package, therefore it is there, and i’m paying for it.”

(campion left off the period, ending the sentence.)

Campion wrote: “None of the money you give the cable company goes to EWTN, so how are you “paying for it”?”

Again, as I had written, in replies to ‘Ms/sr. Campion’ and others, “it is part of the subscription package offered by the cable company, wherein i cannot opt out.”

Any other answers by ‘Ms/sr. campion’ DMAPOS!

I will admit, with all the ‘urban geopolitical claptrap’ (nowhatamsayn), the redneck go-to-dah-swamp mudplay, the ‘swishy metrosexual i’m here now watch me’ junk, ‘the junkman cometh, gather the old toys’, let alone now, all the fawning over all things British, I do believe that I’m getting the alimerntary canal played with, and no, I do not care for it, considering the cable/ISP bill has risen 25% under this poser in the White House.

She is a sweet old lady.. I have seen her on EWTN ...but like so many she is lost unless she comes to Christ..

I'm pretty certain that neither she nor Mother Theresa has a whole lot to worry about.....on the other hand there are those who willingly rejected Gods gift of Jesus' true church..Catholic...and they might have something to answer for.....we'll see!!

They can pay for their own, on their television broadcasts, separate from being attached to MY cable bill.

Write "PLEASE CANCEL MY SERVICE" when you send in your last payment....that'll fix 'em

dear terycarl,

then we have reached an impasse, and I no longer need to spend the waning seconds of my life with your continued dribble.
