my heart is with every child of rape, foster child, child with disability, etc. who has basically been told for the past 72 hours on all forms of news and social media they aren't wanted and don't deserve to exist right now.
A reminder if you try to remove God from art, you are left with an ugliness similar to sin which too has no relation to God and welcome to my Ted talk :-)))
so i was talking to a guy who gave up meat, alcohol, movies, and television for lent and i was like "so is there anything you HAVEN'T given up for lent" and he said "you" and it was one of the smoothest catholic pickup lines i've ever experienced

Sad to hear the story of a friend today who felt shamed by others for choosing to abstain from receiving the Eucharist. Please do not stare or look with suspicion on neighbors who don’t receive.
Ladies, imagine this. On your deathbed your eight children come to pray a rosary for you. Your spouse holds your hand as you pass. Your family arranges masses for your intentions and prays for you on All Soul’s for years to come.

Ladies, a priest I know was forced on Sunday to ask a woman at Mass to cover her shoulders. Please help the priest to protect the purity of the men at holy Mass by choosing to dress modestly. The alternative is awkward for all involved. Thank you.
Kissing your crush at midnight: not trad, awkward, DEFINITE cooties
Kissing your scapular at midnight: wholesome, pure, 500 days indulgence in purgatory
Currently a little lost in London but it’s ok because I just stumbled across the Roman Catholic mother church for England and made it in time for evening prayer 👌🏻
