Blessings for Our Fathers
Posted by Danielle Bean in Family on Sunday, June 19, 2011
Blessings today to to every man who labors and loves, protects and provides:
Prayer for Fathers
St. Joseph, guardian of Jesus and chaste husband of Mary, you passed your life in loving fulfillment of duty. You supported the holy family of Nazareth with the work of your hands. Kindly protect those who trustingly come to you. You know their aspirations, their hardships, their hopes. They look to you because they know you will understand and protect them. You too knew trial, labor and weariness. But amid the worries of material life your soul was full of deep peace and sang out in true joy through intimacy with God’s Son entrusted to you and with Mary, his tender Mother. Assure those you protect that they do not labor alone. Teach them to find Jesus near them and to watch over him faithfully as you have done.
—Pope John XXIII
What to Do For Dad?
Posted by Danielle Bean in Family on Wednesday, June 15, 2011
This Sunday (June 19) is Father’s Day. Do you have plans yet?
In our house, a couple of the younger girls will be away for the weekend, so I am hoping to pull together an early celebration while we are still all home.
After a month of birthdays and Confirmation, I am feeling a little partied out, though, and was hoping some of you could inspire me.
Do you have a creative idea for a Father’s Day gift for your husband or father this year? What kind of plans are you making for family celebrations?

Forced Into Fatherhood?
Posted by Danielle Bean in Family on Thursday, May 27, 2010
How much say should a man have in the decision to become a parent?
For Catholics, the answer is easy: A man who doesn’t want to be a parent should not be having sex. That’s where the “freedom of choice” comes in. But the immorality of our secular, pro-abortion culture makes the question significantly more complicated than that.
This month, Elle magazine publishes a story about Greg Bruell, a man who made a pact with his girlfriend... READ MORE
