Posted by Lisa Hendey in Faith on Saturday, September 20, 2008
Today, on September 20, we celebrate the Memorial of Saint Andrew Kim Taegon, priest and martyr, and Saint Paul Chong Hasang, martyr, and their companions, the martyrs of Korea.
I will admit to not having known many of the details of the lives of these saintly men and women who brought the faith to and founded the Church in Korea. They are noted for their faith-filled bravery in being willing to... READ MORE
A Mother to Many

I came across this wonderful video today and thought you might enjoy watching it as well. It is a succinct look at the life of Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta and offers wonderful reminders about how the life on one person can have an impact upon so many. Enjoy!
We Can All Just Get Along

Investigative journalist and Conservative commentator Robert Novak has been a fixture on the Washington scene for more than 40 years. During his long career he’s broken many stories—getting people to “spill” to him with his fabled creed, “You’re either a source or a target.”
This summer Mr. Novak was diagnosed with brain cancer. He writes about how his Catholic faith is helping him and about the outpouring of help and support he’s found—even from his ideological “enemies” in this lovely column, My Brain Tumor.

I have not yet seen this movie, but the trailer intrigued me. And then reading this positive Catholic review clinched the deal. I must see this movie.

When Tina Robbins was diagnosed with co lon cancer in the spring of 2006, she didn’t feel afraid or angry. She felt ready to suffer well.
She did not know at that point how very hard it all would be.
The 41-year-old wife and mother of five from Bloomington, Minn., admits, “I thought, ‘Oh, God’s giving me this opportunity to suffer to save souls.’ Well, I was all on board. I’m... READ MORE

St. Killian’s, Christendom
Kaylie Miller
When she was 15 years old, Kaylie Miller made a promise to herself: She would not attend a Catholic college. But her resolve faded when she visited the campus of Christendom College in Front Royal, Va.

Most of us practice the traditional American virtue of minding our own business. But in the defense of marriage against those who want to redefine it — whether they be polygamists in Texas or homosexual activists in California — we should make an exception.
After all, one-man, one-woman mo nogamous marriage is more than an anomaly of religion. It is the foundation of the political... READ MORE
