Did you see this? In stores across the country, mostly Kmarts, donors are paying off layaway accounts for complete strangers.
Read the whole story here, and if you don’t tear up while you do… well, you’re more stoic than I am.
What a lovely way to help someone at Christmas!

Before the advent of the Do Not Call registry, I vaguely remember telemarketers calling the house a lot. My parents hated it.
These days it’s easier, since only charities can legally call and ask for money. But if you’re anything like us, those calls still come on a fairly regular basis.
We have caller ID, so it’s pretty easy to avoid talking to solicitors by screening the calls. Since some of them... READ MORE

I must admit, I haven’t felt much like dreaming about fashion while so many are hurting in Haiti.
Even though I know there are suffering people at all times all over the world, for some reason this latest tragedy has hit me particularly hard. All I’ve been able to think about is how much I want to help the people of Haiti and how sad I am that I have so little to give.
Yesterday, while praying for... READ MORE

Update From Faith & Family Magazine
Posted by Danielle Bean in News on Monday, November 09, 2009
Many readers have been asking about the September/October issue of Faith & Family magazine, and understandably so – because none of you received one.
This summer, the same kinds of pressures that have recently closed several secular publications caught up with Faith & Family.
Financially, we were unable to print and mail the September/October 2009 issue of the magazine on or even close to schedule,... READ MORE

Collection Update

Thank you to everyone who has so generously donated to the collection for Amy Welborn and her family. As of this morning, we have collected a little more than $6,000. I will continue to collect through the weekend and then all funds will be sent to Amy.
Also of note, Our Sunday Visitor has announced that they will be “contributing to Mike’s children’s college fund by doubling what would have been Mike’s proceeds from book sales on all of his OSV books through the month of February.” So keep buying those books!
Thank you so much for your generosity.

Collection for Amy Welborn
Posted by Danielle Bean in News on Wednesday, February 04, 2009
COLLECTION ENDED. PAYPAL BUTTON REMOVED.
The Catholic blogosphere has been deeply saddened by the loss of Amy Welborn‘s husband, Catholic author and blogger Michael Dubruiel.
I have heard from so many of you expressing a deep desire to help the family in some tangible way during their time of loss. I’ve set up a Paypal button to collect donations that will be sent to Amy, to help cover the costs of Michael’s funeral and any other expenses she might be encountering at this time.
You do not need a Paypal account to donate via Paypal. For those who would prefer to mail a check, I am looking into getting a publishable mailing address for donations by personal check and will update with that information when I have it.
This couple has given so much to the Church through their work. Please consider helping in whatever way you can.
(Amy has also mentioned that royalties from the sale of Michael’s The How-To Book of the Mass will go directly to the children’s college fund)
