Open Letter

Dear Mum,

Can you, for one second of your life, please, keep your trap shut. For once. Please. I've only just told you this morning when I came home from Mass where I was and I was honest. Yes it is a CATHOLIC Church. Why? Because Jesus set up this church, and for all its failings, Jesus is still at its heart. Please, don't go telling everyone I'm afraid not everyone will take it well - like your Mum (my Nana) did today. This is my personal decision and I'm not appreciating you opening your mouth. AGAIN. Please get the hint - if I want people to know I will tell them it's not your place to say anything.

Love,

Your Daughter.

Just searching around the interwebs

Just browsing the interwebs for Catholic sites specific for young adults (generally 18-30) and the vast majority is on sexual morality. Seriously? Is that all Catholic Young Adults think about? Is that all the everyone thinks we thing about? There is so little about the lives of saints, lessons from the scriptures, vocations, relating to others in a Christian way... I just think it's sad. And to be honest I'm sick of hearing about it.

If you find any good ones. Let me know ok?

Father Marcus called

Tonight just calling to say he hadn't forgot about me because we weren't able to talk after Mass. He said ideally, he'd like to get a group of people to go through R.C.I.A together to share the experience although currently, there is only an Anglican woman who is interested in coming into full communion with the church at thus, is at a different stage to me, but he will work on it. I'm hopefully going to drop in and see him tomorrow afternoon.

I was just thinking that I'm not going to vote for a dunder-head M.P. just because they're pro-life. If you can't do the job the people elect you for then you're not getting my vote.

They're E-V-E-R-Y-W-H-E-R-E....

Wow so I just saw my head of programme i.e. the ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR at Mass last night [didn't say gidday because she must have been sitting behind me and I only just noticed her when she was going up for communion]. Also saw some other people that I see around campus ALL THE TIME. This is at the Cathedral though. I also saw one of my aquaintences with their family (they're sisters) on the Feast of the Assumption as well.

Catholics. They're everywhere.
