The American cardinal says the witness to the Truth of the patron saint of politicians, who died defending the indissolubility of marriage when few others would, is “exceptionally important” today.

I’m surprised, as Catholics, that your dad was cremated. That’s something new since VII.

Yes, it was his and my mom's preference and the church does permit it now, provided the ashes are interred in an acceptable manner in their entirety.

Hello Mrs. Don-o,

That scripture passage as well as many others are typically skipped over by non-Catholics or passed off as “metaphor”. It’s also too bad that many Catholics know less about the bible than our Protestant brothers and sisters.

Please say hello to Don-o for me. I rarely post here on FR... (not like I used to anyway). Ministry keeps me busy, busy.
