I think if it's OK by people, I might suggest a few things for our rosary intentions, based on the Pontifex Twitter account?

Today though, I would like to invite those of you praying the rosary, to offer it up for the Crimean region

Oops, I knew there was something else I was supposed to be doing yesterday

Met the new youth coordinator for the next door parish in paperchase today. God is good

I was wondering if anyone here is knowledgeable about altar serving?

There was always one part during altar serving I remember doing when I was an altar server at my old church but don't think I have seen done at other Churches. But I always remember somewhere before the Eucharist we used to come out with candles and someone would come out with incense and I think we would all kneel before the altar. I'm not sure if that makes sense, but I was wondering if anyone knows what that was and if it has a name? The Mass I used to go to there used to be a lot of altar servers and so I guess more roles had to be created so everybody got to do something So maybe the priest just included it just to give everybody a role?

Sure thing, Aula! Today we pray for the Ukraine, all its people, and for its governors, so that peace may prevail

We also pray for Poncho Kid's sister, who may be made homeless soon We pray for all those facing difficulty with housing and accommodation

(Confession: too depressed to do the last two rosaries. I fail at Lent and thus fail at life )

Ah yes, I heard about this Fulton Sheen miracle! Very exciting indeed

It's okay, I do too!

It's not a miracle yet - still a few more hoops to be jumped through, but it's certainly on the way there.

Did this happen at every service or at a particular time of year? I think I've seen something similar happen during Holy Week at my church, but certainly not as a regular occurence

So ..how's Lent going for you guys?

Today I think our prayer/rosary intention should be the missing Malaysian plane. Quite worrying really

It's already driven me crazy

I was thinking this, although we could keep it for Monday as Sundays don't count during lent

I miss butter

So ..how's Lent going for you guys?

I did the 'which disciple are you?' quiz and got St Thomas. I have my doubts about such quizzes.

TLG's news bulletin for the day:

- WOO IT'S MARCH
- It's almost Lent!
- Diety has jokingly suggested it would be fun to make all of X Soc do the rosary.



You in? (see bullet point three)

CATH SOC INVASION OF X SOC FTW!

- I have decided to treat myself to a nice Paperchase scrapbook, for my preparation for/journey to/journey through Israel

Which Biblical Heroine Are You?

Beautiful and sweet, you’re a deep thinker and a bit of an introvert. People often make assumptions or underestimate you because of your physical appearance, not realizing that behind the pretty face is a ferociously intelligent mind and a passion for justice. Although you prefer to stay out of the spotlight, nothing can stop you from standing up for the things you believe in. You’re definitely going to change the world one day.

Today, may I suggest we pray for our dear brothers and sisters who live in fear due to persecution and the threat of violence and death?

We continue to pray for the Ukraine and for the missing Malaysian aeroplane

(I hope no one minds me leading these prayers/talking to myself btw )
