Saints that Were Persecuted or Let Down by the Church

The betrayal of Judas runs very, very deep. Something that's been weighing heavily on my heart lately is a feeling that I can't depend on or trust the Church. The greater scandals, a scandal in a religious organization that I grew up around and consider family , and what happened in my own case , have all led to a deep distrust in the institutional Church. I don't think I'll ever be able to trust a priest for advice in the same way again, and I struggle with how I'm going to navigate Catholic community life and keep my children safe without making them afraid. In this dark time, I've been introduced to a few people who have also been through a season of betrayal by God's Church. It's funny, but these people seem to have gone out of their way to find me. It's ironic and tragic that some of the heaviest crosses laid on the shoulders of the saints have been put there by the hand of that which was supposed to be their support. At the sa

Late, but Unusually Fashionable

1.) I worked VBS this week, and there was a 80s theme. I had some fun with it on the final "dress up" day. That one blouse/blazer I found at the thrift store a couple months ago finally had it's time to shine (it doesn't show in the picture, but it had SHOULDER PADS). (This is apropos of nothing, but it bugs me more than it should that the majority of 80s costumes are a variation of a black and neon Madonna costume. Almost without variation. It seems to be this generation's version of the 50s poodle skirt costume. There's so many more interesting fashions from both decades than that). VBS was fun. I got put in charge of a class of preschoolers-- thankfully just four. They were sweet kids, but there's a lot of energy and effort you've got to put into a group that age. They'll work on whatever you clearly lay out for them, but it's got to be CRYSTAL clear and consistent, or you'll lose their attention. 2.) The thing I thought was waterme

Last Week: A Summary

Our first week of school is behind us! Well, first half week. Monday: I honestly don't remember much about Monday, except that we went to vigil mass that evening. Chris got caught up at work, so I had to get the kids fed, dressed, and out the door by myself. He met us there in his work clothes, then went to go get dinner somewhere while I took the kids home and got bedtime routine going. It was a long day. I'm glad it's over. Supper was scrambled eggs and rushin' pancakes (crepe batter poured like regular batter. Turns out thick and doughy, but the kids like them and they're quick to make). Tuesday : I didn't want to do school on a holy day of obligation. I went to Catholic high school and in retrospect it kind of rubs me the wrong way we didn't have those days off (not actually a holy day of obligation, but we had to be back in school the Monday after Easter once. It also happened to be my birthday that year. I was less than thrilled). So now that I
