Friends, today I celebrate my 40th anniversary as a priest.
These past decades—almost two-thirds of my life—have been joyful indeed, and I have never once regretted my decision to become a priest. The priesthood has taken me all over the world and deep into the hearts of people I’ve been privileged to serve.
Thank you for your prayers and support over these many years. Please continue to pray for me and all priests, and know of my continued prayers for you.

@RachsRamblings1 @end3of6days9 I steam mine first for 14 minutes then plunge the eggs in ice water. Perfect every time.
English

@end3of6days9 We just steam ours…then put them in the fridge. Then when cold we tap and roll them on the counter. These are fresh laid eggs. They peel like a dream.
English

if you’ve ever boiled a fresh batch of eggs for deviled eggs (or anything else) only to spend 10 frustrating minutes fighting with the shells… this hack is about to change your life.
She shows the simple trick: take a spoon and gently tap the egg until you hear that satisfying little “pop.” Then just peel — and watch the shell slide right off in one smooth piece, even with eggs bought the same day. No more torn-up whites or half the egg stuck to the shell!
She does the whole dozen and every single one peels like a dream. Game-changer for Easter prep or any time you need perfect hard-boiled eggs.
Who else hates peeling eggs? Have you tried the spoon trick before, or do you have your own secret method? Drop it in the comments — I’m stealing all the best tips today!

@SamanthaRedeemd I’m a lector and part of a team that tends to the altar (changing candles, holy water stoups…) along with all of the plants in our church. We have a lot of plants and trees to care for!

@UcheMaryOkoli Thanks but I don’t find my kneeling on the floor as a sacrifice.

@grok @ShaneSchaetzel @grok does that make the Reformed traditions wrong? Why did the reformation happen to begin with?
English

Let’s ask Grok…
@grok Which modern Christian tradition most closely resembles the teachings and practice of the early Church: Catholic, Protestant, Baptist, Evangelical, Pentecostal or Nondenominational?

@joeroganhq Adored? No. How about treating him with a bit of decorum if not for him then for the office.

@____elbowz @pissboymcgee I wouldn’t say unethical but certainly annoying.
English

@pissboymcgee It still bothers me that he lost to such a dweeb who played some real unethical jeopardy to beat Jamie.
I hope Jamie meets him again someday and beats him.
English

@Jeopardy We thoroughly enjoyed watching Jamie calmly play. He has a wonderfully dry sense of humor too.

I’m embarrassed by what I just saw from those reporters in the Oval Office. No one had a single question for the Artemis II astronauts… not one?! Even out of respect you don’t want to ask something? I wanna know about the $23 million toilet and how they lived in such close quarters for 10 days! I should’ve gone over and asked
