This is one of the best Catholic blogs I have ever seen!!!
I appreciate the compliment.
I see this blog as a vehicle for continuing my role as Teacher and Defender of the Faith, and of our baptismal vocation as Priests, Prophets and Kings.
May the Lord continue to shower His blessings upon you.
And, you have the technical aspects -- like importing photos, linking and bringing-clips-from-You-Tube-to-your-blog -- of blogging down pat. .... Chivalry and honor live on. God bless.
Thanks again. My undergrad was in communications.
Pax vobiscum
Right back at you.
