If this recipe seems familiar, you’d be right. It’s one I made a while back for Kiddo and I. Since Hubby will be joining us, I’ve made some minor changes. We’ve elimiated the stronger cheeses; sticking with those that are mild and creamy. Hubby seems to be okay with that.

Have Mercy on Us
The Catholic Church trace its existance back to the very beginning. We have always acknowledged Saint Peter, the Rock, as our first Pope. What is a Pope but a Vicar of Christ. It is only fitting that the first Pope was appointed by Christ himself.

Have you ever wonder where in the world Easter came from? I don’t mean the celebration of the Resurrected Lord on Easter Sunday. I mean the term Easter. It’s certainly not Latin for Resurrected. So how did Easter come to be known as Easter?
Continue reading “Praise Be!”The Long Wait
Yesterday was Good Friday. Our alter has been stripped bare. The church seems sparse, crosses and statues are covered. There is no morning Mass before the Easter Vigil. The Church remains as empty as the world must have felt on the eve of that first Easter morning.

A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stick of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus’ Lips.
When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
John 19:29-30
Blessed Be Holy Thursday

First lets get the Feast of Saint Gabriel out of the way. Prior to Vatican II and it’s many simplified changes in the traditional observances of the faith, three of the most predominant Archangels – Gabriel; Raphael and Michael each had their own feast day.

Today is the last Friday of the Lenten Season. While some people count Good Friday as the last Friday of the season, actually it’s not. The Lenten Season ends with the evening Mass of Holy Thursday. It is the Lord’s Supper, and it ushers in the Holy Triduum. More on that later.

Today we celebrate one of two feast days to honor Saint Joseph, Christ’s earthy father. The full title of today’s feast is the Solemnity of Saint Joseph, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The fact this this is a Solemnity Feast speak volumes of the Church’s regard toward Saint Joseph.
