Respect Life Month
by Cardinal Justin Rigali
“We Cannot Tolerate an Even Greater Loss of Innocent Human Lives”
On October 5, 2008, Catholics across the United States will again celebrate Respect Life Sunday. Throughout the month of October, Catholic parishes and organizations will sponsor hundreds of educational conferences, prayer services, and opportunities for public witness, as well as events to raise funds for programs assisting those in need. Such initiatives are integral to the Church’s ongoing effort to help build a culture in which every human life without exception is respected and defended. read entire article . . .

The Fifteen Promises of Mary to Christians Who Recite the Rosary
Esther has a lovely post on the rosary in her life:
My Promise to the Blessed Mother
“The Rosary is the book of the blind, where souls see and there enact the greatest drama of love the world has ever known; it is the book of the simple which initiates them into mysteries and knowledge more satisfying than the education of other men; it is the book of the aged, whose eyes close upon the shadow of the world and open on the substance of the next.”
— Praying the Rosary by Bishop Fulton Sheen, 1953
