Healing From Loss
May 7, 2011 By 1 Comment
Earlier in the week, I was asked if I could be an accompanist at a healing Mass on a Wednesday evening. I didn’t have anything else on the calendar and decided that I would accept the chance to minister through music at our parish. I only had a short pocket of time to practice the [Read On]
40 Days of Seeking Him 2011 ~ Day 29
April 11, 2011 By 3 Comments
We are now well past the middle mark of Lent and Holy Week is fast approaching. Unlike some years, I do feel like this Lent has offered plenty of opportunity for sacrifice and prayer. In the wee hours this morning, I spent time with Jesus as a substitute for Perpetual Adoration at our parish. After [Read On]
40 Days of Seeking Him 2011 ~ Day 6
March 15, 2011 By 2 Comments
Looking at some of the posts for this meme by other bloggers has helped spark a bit of contemplation for me. Catherine at Our Village is a Little Different had the following statement: “Love the Lord God with all my heart, and love my neighbor as I have been loved.” This is something I am [Read On]
Reflecting on Homilies Heard in the Recent Past
January 9, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Since the start of the liturgical year in Advent, I have been jotting down little tidbits from our pastor’s homily that I want to remember and share with my own reflection. I’ve just been a bit bad about the sharing part! As my creative juices are a bit stymied after writing lyrics for one TOS [Read On]
Happy New Year!

2011 has come in quietly in our house. P and I watched When in Rome on Netflix last night with the occasional firework in the background. Today, the older boys want to go hiking with Mr. O. I’ll most likely be doing some much needed baking. But, I also hope to attend Mass this morning [Read On]
Holiday Bliss 2010 ~ Day 31
December 31, 2010 By 1 Comment
Here it is, the last day of December and the last day of 2010. I can hardly believe that a year ago we were splitting our time between cleaning our our rental house and hanging out in the Homewood Suites in Belcamp, MD. I thought I would pull together a little slideshow of photos from [Read On]
Who’s really Catholic?
August 29, 2010 By 8 Comments
So far I am really liking our new pastor. He started off his first week by saying that he’s neither a liberal or a conservative Catholic….instead he is faithful to The Church. I’m sure there are some Catholics who label themselves conservative that would say that’s what makes them conservative. His statement did provide a [Read On]
Sunday Reflections ~ Celebrating the Feast of Corpus Christi
June 6, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Today we celebrated the Feast of Corpus Christi (often referred to as The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ.) Aside from an extra piece of music after the second reading and a focus of the readings and music upon the Holy Eucharist, it seemed like any other Sunday Mass at our [Read On]
