I'm ...I thought two of them remained Anglican. <br />I'm sorry you are upset, but I think the sisters stated it quiet well when they said they could no longer support the liberal agenda in the Anglican church. <br /><br />Here's a quote from an article I read on the subject: (http://www.baltimoresun.com/features/faith/bal-md.fa.nuns04sep04,0,7981764.story)<br /><br />Their departure, which the sisters said they had been considering for years, comes weeks after voters at the Episcopal General Convention declared homosexuals eligible for any ordained ministry within the church and began writing prayers to bless gay unions.<br /><br />"As we interpret Scripture, it does not give you license to be actively involved in a same-sex relationship," said Christie, who became a nun in 1966. "It is not the person we have a problem with. It is what that person is doing. And now that the Episcopal Church has given permission to bless these partnerships, it is way off the boat."Sister Mary Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09033012870193990053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-28714510568484817202009-09-21T12:14:16.913-07:002009-09-21T12:14:16.913-07:00What do you think about the entire Catonsville, MD...What do you think about the entire Catonsville, MD Episcopalian convent converting to RC?

Maybe you could by a can of that deodorizer that actually eliminates smells. It has some chemical in it that actually absorbs the odors and takes them away, so I imagine it would also take away the oder of the scented bags. Just sprinkle or spray a little into the bag when you replace it with a new one. Heck, it might even take away some the smell of the garbage. Double bonus! <br /><br />Very interesting post on the miracles requirement. I was still under the impression that three were needed. I always wondered why some people were put on the "fast track" to sainthood (I think JPII and Mother Therese were/are on the fast track). That makes me sad for those on the slow track...doesn't seem fair. :-(Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07835150057881066641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-6278131408926758822009-09-20T19:37:22.770-07:002009-09-20T19:37:22.770-07:00If they ever decide to bring the DA gig back, I...If they ever decide to bring the DA gig back, I'm their girl.

I have a VERY absent minded son who needs a special patron to help him get through school, and I think I saw this on your website but can't find it now. Would you mind repeating the information? I would be very grateful. Thanks, and have a great weekend! <br /><br />You might try clipping rosemary from your garden to put in the bottom of the trash can. I hate those scented bags as well.Monicanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-48975308118202039502009-09-17T20:14:30.790-07:002009-09-17T20:14:30.790-07:00I would have to second SMM suggestion of My Cousin...I would have to second SMM suggestion of My Cousin The Saint. After seeing it on her site I purchased the book.

I thought I offered up everything but this one slipped past. The smell is overpowering. I'll offer this one up, too.

For that act of kindness you should get a few souls on their way out of purgatory. What bothers me are the little cards of perfume that are inserted in the local department store ads. I solved that problem by placing them in the bottom of my cat litter boxes. Wonder what Calvin Klein would think about that?<br /><br />You will save everyone's nostrils at your abode. I can not use scented things because my nose will start running and sneezing.Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02714440790407126206noreply@blogger.com
