Pope Leo has advanced the sainthood cause of Fr Edward Flanagan, founder of Boys Town. The Irish-born priest, who died in 1948, devoted his life to the care of disadvantaged boys. (CNS photo)

Pope Leo XIV has just declared Father Edward Flanagan, the founder of Boys Town, venerable in recognition of his heroic virtue.

Let us continue to pray for peace in #Iran and throughout the #Middle East, especially for the many civilian victims, including many innocent children. May our prayer offer comfort to those who suffer and a seed of hope for the future. #PrayTogether

@BpRobertReed First crocus of the season for us!

Seen at my house today ~ signs of new life…

@badbanana It’s exhausting!

Man was not meant to monitor this many situations.

@catholicguyshow whoa! Was that deep cut of Wonderful Terrific Monds Junior, as today’s guest, for me?! #GoBigRed

Would you imagine what a world without wars would be like? #PrayTogether

Pope Leo XIV releases his prayer intention for the month of March, inviting Catholics to pray with him for 'disarmament and peace,' and praying that 'the nuclear threat may never again dictate the future of humanity.' vaticannews.va/en/pope/news/2…

@gavinabraham @catholicguyshow Perfect! Missed out on that opportunity at Mass this morning.

@BarbInNebraska @catholicguyshow A friend said it was proposed that “Shine, Jesus Shine” be sung this weekend because of the Transfiguration Gospel 😇

@catholicguyshow told my 3rd graders that Sunday’s gospel is about ‘Shiny Jesus’!

@KatiePMcGrady @SIRIUSXM Thanks for the nerdie opening of the show. I love that stuff!

Pope Leo will visit Algeria, the land of St. Augustine, in April. He'll then visit Pavia, where St. Augustine is buried, in June. Worth remembering: the Holy Father introduced himself to us as a "son of Augustine" back in May. Breaking it all down on @SIRIUSXM @CatholicChannel this morning, and taking your calls (888-322-8465)

Let us ask for the grace of a #Lent that leads us to greater attentiveness to God and to the least among us. Let us ask for the strength that comes from the type of fasting that also extends to our use of language, so that hurtful words may diminish and give way to a greater space for the voice of others. Let us strive to make our communities places where the cry of those who suffer finds welcome, and listening opens paths towards liberation. vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

@Denise205 thank you too for the family Lent calendar. The parish decided not to do CRS rice bowl this year, so this is a great substitute!

@Denise205 Passed own to our faculty the 40 crosses activity for our students. Thanks for providing each year.

@tonyvincent So I was able to introduce my 28 year old teaching partner to Lucy. She had never seen this skit!

I think students in grades 3–8 would enjoy practicing multiplication with this Valentine-themed game. They fill heart-shaped boxes with the right chocolates as they solve facts. 👉 go.apphive.us/valentimes For extra fun, show students the I Love Lucy conveyor belt clip. 🙃

@tonyvincent The Lucy skit was new to them too. I love that I got to introduce her to them.

@tonyvincent My 3rd graders love it! Thanks!
