"Never On Sunday"

  "Never On Sunday" Oh you can kiss me on a Monday a Monday a Monday is very very good Or you can kiss me on a Tuesday a Tuesday a Tuesday in fact I wish you would Or you can kiss me on a Wednesday a Thursday a Friday and Saturday is best But never ever on a Sunday a Sunday a Sunday cause that's my day of rest Most any day you can be my guest Anyday you say but my day of rest Just name the day that you like the best Only stay away on my day of rest Most any day you can be my guest Anyday you say but my day of rest Connie Francis - Never on Sunday (Lyrics) https://youtu.be/ayAZFJdJCcs?si=XsWZyVpAf7TxUXTr via @YouTube Connie Francis Lyrics

We’re the only Catholic church that has valet parking’: The Nevada congregation inside a casino

 We’re the only Catholic church that has valet parking’: The Nevada congregation inside a casino ‘We sometimes joke that we’re the only Catholic church that has valet parking,’ Father Charlie Urnick, longtime pastor of St. John the Baptist Parish, told The Independent’s Erin Keller The steady hum of slot machines is joined by a chorus of hymns every weekend at Riverside Resort and Casino in Laughlin, Nevada. Inside the 800-seat Don’s Celebrity Theatre, just past the poker tables, rows of chairs fill up not for a lounge singer, but for Catholic Mass. We sometimes joke that we’re the only Catholic church that has valet parking,” Father Charlie Urnick, the longtime pastor of St. John the Baptist Parish, told The Independent. What began more than three decades ago as a temporary response to the lack of a dedicated parish church has become one of the country’s most unusual parish arrangements. In 1992, about 500 residents petitioned the Diocese of Reno to send a priest to the small rive...

Love the Sinner

  Love the Sinner https://crisismagazine.com/opinion/love-the-sinner?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=novashare On the forest floor, half covered in withered leaves, lay the naked body of a child, a young girl. Her short dark hair reached just to her shoulders; her face was obscured with leaves. In her childish breast there was a small, curiously shaped triangular wound, livid against the white, translucent skin. It was a deep, almost bloodless wound—the kind that bleeds on the inside. Olav Audunsson stood looking down at her in grief and heartbreak and horror. There was about her something familiar, though he could swear he had never seen her before. And the wound in her breast had been made by his own dagger. He awoke from his dream greatly troubled. The vision seemed to accuse him of the murder of a child, yet never had he knowingly done violence against such a one. Men he had killed in battle, or for vengeance, but never had he harmed woman or child! ...

  Present Day Adolescent Sexuality and Its Implications for the Camp Community-Losing #Viginity https://www.acacamps.org/article/camping-magazine/healthy-camp-symposium-preview-present-day-adolescent-sexuality-its-implications-camp-community Sex is a topic that elicits such strong emotions in people that it often becomes difficult to have a clear, calm, rational conversation about it. When that conversation concerns the sexual behavior of children and teens, things get even more emotional. Lynn Ponton, a well-known adolescent psychiatrist in San Francisco who wrote the popular book The Romance of Risk (Basic Books, 1997) on adolescent risk-taking behavior, once told me how she unwittingly stepped into a maelstrom of controversy and criticism when she followed her best seller with another book titled The Sex Lives of Teenagers. "Suddenly, I found myself fending off the accusation that I was advocating that teenagers have sex rather than merely reporting on that aspect of their liv...

Vienna’s Silent Transformation: Nearly 50% of students in schools are already Muslim. Only 17% are Catholic - ZENIT - English

Vienna’s Silent Transformation: Nearly 50% of students in schools are already Muslim. Only 17% are Catholic - ZENIT - English : Perhaps no recent controversy symbolizes Vienna’s cultural unease more clearly than the city government’s decision earlier this year not to erect a statue honoring Polish King John III Sobieski. Sobieski led the Christian coalition that defeated Ottoman forces outside Vienna on September 12, 1683, in one of the decisive battles of European history

Savonarola remains an enigma

  Savonarola remains an enigma, as controversial in our day as he was in his own. He was born in Ferrara in 1452, the grandson of a learned physician who helped him on his way to acquiring a master of arts degree at the University of Ferrara. At the age of twenty-three, however, he rejected the secular world to become a Dominican friar in the Observant monastery in Bologna, where St. Dominic himself had died and was buried. It was there that he acquired the deep learning reflected in his later sermons, as we can now see from the “Borromeo notebook,”... https://www.jstor.org/stable/j.ctt1npnwt
