Though there aren't any meetings near me that I can attend, I was extremely comforted simply by the fact that they existed when I was in the process of joining the Church last year. I know that Courage helps many people with SSA to live chastely. They are doing God's work!J.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-48402490927781071512009-04-22T10:18:00.000-07:002009-04-22T10:18:00.000-07:00@J.,

Very funny, in a smiley sort of way--but I gave a hoot out loud at yore response to the bewildered non-Catholic who could not grasp the purpose of purgatory:<br /><br />"so let me get this straight...I kill you, say I'm sorry and go to heaven? Shouldn't I have a better understanding of my evil act before I get to heaven?<br /><br />Or...<br /><br />I go about my merry life 'believing in Jesus" and walking by all the homeless people judging them as winos and stepping into Target to buy a new set of coffee mugs with chihuahuas on them and go home to watch "The Bachelor" and I'm still going straight to heaven? What a good deal!!!!!<br /><br />It is just this sort of thinking that leads me to worry about the possibilty of a future war in heaven. "<br /><br />Howling hilarious. (an' great theology) Bless Ya'!Aunty Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13868780211706866610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-50531130434985241232009-04-22T00:39:00.000-07:002009-04-22T00:39:00.000-07:00Well, now, ya' gotta be intrigued by a Sister who...Well, now, ya' gotta be intrigued by a Sister who writes "Drip Drip Drip" an' then moves directly into inundation. <br /><br />Ain't sure how I got here, but mebbe thar's a saint for fallin' down the right rabbit holes--meanin' I'se tickled to have found ya Sister MM.<br /><br />But now that I'se here, mayhap I can share an "internet" saint wif' ya'. Onc't I had the fun of meetin' a Sister who worked at the Vatican (the geeky shoes is a dead give away.) Her job was settin' up the Vatican web site, coordinatin' the computer whiz-kids and such. She said the patron saint of the Vatican's web works was the Archangel Gabriel--chief of communications. <br /><br />(side note: I wanted to be a Sister meself. But that ugly shoe situation hung me up. So I got married and ended up barefoot an' pregnant instead. Doan God have jes' the grandest sense of humor? Anyhow, I'm jes' sayin' I think some elegant shoes would improve any vocations drive.)Aunty Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13868780211706866610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-58128156061285589862009-04-21T21:52:00.000-07:002009-04-21T21:52:00.000-07:00St. Ignatius springs to mind as well.

Is there any saint I could pray to? <br /><br />I've prayed to Our Blessed Virgin Mother, St. Augustine, and St. Agnes for purity and chastity, and with their intercessions and God's grace I no longer fall to lust or sins of the flesh; however, I'm still far more attracted to my own sex than the opposite sex. Is there any saint who can help me? <br /><br />Thank you, Sister. I enjoy your blog immensely!J.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-27477360273769096992009-04-21T19:31:00.000-07:002009-04-21T19:31:00.000-07:00Hello Sister,
