Yeah, the next liturgical year really just doesn't let up for five months.

My faith formation/reli ed plan is in shambles because it's only about an month of free space between Christmas and Lent.

Welcoming the stranger, love of neighbor, and feeding the hungry are how all Christians *should* live into our freedom in Christ.

Ok, it might be that Suz goes with the kids and I hand out candy. We're one of the first houses on the block, and after the wave of kids, I get 30 minutes of this:
