Come to think of it I’m surprised this hasn’t happened before. I guess I forgot at the rehearsal to tell them to make it easy on each other and present the correct finger for the rings because the groom was just standing there. So the bride says firmly, “Give me the finger.”

I have spent too much on gifts for this confirmanda. But I've never been a sacramental sponsor before and it's exciting!

To paraphrase my friend @TaylorRMarshall: If you didn't celebrate the Ascension today, you're not on the team.

@franciscanmom @timothypomalley It’s usually translated “Go, set the world on fire,” and Jesuits attribute it to St. Ignatius—though Jesuit historian Fr. Bart Geger is fond of pointing out that we don’t actually have any text where Ignatius says that

When commencement speakers exhort students to set the world on fire, they’re risking confusion among highly literal potential arsonists.

@FrCharles I live in the only city (I think) in which the ascension both is and is not celebrated today! Our Lord has ascended from the Vatican but is staying around until Sunday for the slow learners in Rome!

Condolences to all of you, unfortunate majority, who celebrate today Matthias, Apostle, patron saint of wait-list admissions. Signed, someone in one of the last places on earth where the Ascension of the Lord is celebrated on the biblical 40th day of Easter.

It is with deep sadness that the Sacred Heart High School community mourns the passing of Sohail Nabi, Class of 2022. Sohail was a kind, intelligent, and compassionate young man whose warmth and spirit touched all who knew him. He will be remembered with great love. “Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen.”

@JaySusan Like I always say when I hear that weekday holy days of obligation are a burden, well, everyone comes out for Ash Wednesday, apparently no problem there.

@FrCharles The Solemnity of the Ascension should never have been changed to accommodate the faithful. We made it to Mass on Thursdays before this change. The accommodation would have been adding the Vigil Mass, so there are no excuses. I still don't get it.
