Lucky Blessed Brother Andre is in heaven
I hate the thought of him turning in his grave for eternity.
The Holy Cross Fathers who run the very beautiful Oratory of St. Joseph in Montreal showed all the backbone of yesterday's spaghetti by their last-minute ditching of the Canadian National Pro-Life Conference.
Shameful. And a dim echo of "no room at the Inn."
The Montreal police force, not known for hiring wimps, say they could have easily handled any security issues during the event. So...to whom (and why) did these Holy Cross priests cave, exactly?
Makes you wonder if the National Gay and Lesbian Catholic Coalition would get the same barge-pole treatment.
Thankfully, leave it to our separated evangelical brethren to save the day.

I have a Brother Andre medal I got from my aunt.
I think his story is one of the most amazing in modern Church history.
It's a shame what's happened to Montreal.

Bro. Andre is the best. All my first Sacramenst were by Holy Cross Fathers. The Montreal thing sickens and saddens me.
Did you know Bl Andre and Ven. Solanus Casey once met? They had heard of each other and were introduced. Late 20s I think. Very similar personalities and backgrounds. God has a thing about showing up the wise with the foolish.

I didn't know that much about Father Solanus. I looked him up. Very interesting. Neither was considered to have great intellect yet they achieved great holiness. It makes me think "Blessed are the pure of heart."

Pure of heart. Very interesting. Great holiness. You see now why I identify with both men.

Saint Patrick of Canyon Country,
Your a shining example to us all!
Now I need to go refill my medication.

If I wast there with my servant, thou couldst touch the hem of my garment, and be restored unto health.
But Paxil will do in a pinch. hardyhar.

Agaian, a bad choice of words considering the context.
I could do this all day. It's fun.
