About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

Congratulations to Elizabeth and Philip #70thweddinganniversary
Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip… 70th wedding anniversary today. That’s wonderful. May all marriages be enduring. I read that the bells of Westminster Abbey would peel for 3 hours today in their honor. HERE
