When Catholic, Inc. starts shilling that you have a duty to see and support Mel Gibson's movie about the Resurrection, remember this. Gibson's choice of on-site Mass celebrant was a priest prohibited from public ministry.

Fr. Altman just celebrated Holy Mass on the set of Mel Gibson’s The Resurrection of the Christ — right after the final shot! 🙏 Our good friend @FatherAltman returned from Italy earlier this month after being on set for the last day of filming. Here’s what he told me: “I blessed the cast & crew as they prepared for the final ‘take.’ Then I was privileged to celebrate a Holy Mass of Thanksgiving for Mel and his closest associates.” #TheResurrectionOfTheChrist

they don’t tell you about the best part of having a corgi in the family: people will be surprised and mildly delighted to see a picture of your dog’s butt

@cecsquared also, isolating one’s family from all outside contact just so happens to create a perfect environment for abuse…

@FrDylanSchrader Yes! Ideal real estate visually, but the traffic flow will be terrible. I’ve heard many skeptical of the parking capacity 😬

@marec07 Exactly. I do wonder how much more stuff they can put at that intersection. It's already physically impossible to get to most of the places there.

It's probably a Midwestern sentiment, but the construction of this Olive Garden really makes me feel like our state capital is getting markedly classier.

My friends, I need to tell you about Kapili Village, where something I witness troubles me deeply. There is a primary school near this village. It has no water source. None. So the children and their teachers walk to a shallow, open waterhole, little more than a murky brown puddle spread across muddy ground. They crouch at the water's edge to scoop contaminated water into buckets. This is the same water that all 700 residents of Kapili Village depend on. The same water shared with livestock. It is brown, filled with sediment, pooling among exposed mud and tangled vegetation. And this entire area is at high risk for cholera. These children drink this water every day. They have no other choice. But we have a proven solution that works. Through our partnership with Water of Mercy, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we can drill a locally constructed freshwater well that will serve this entire community for 75 years. We have now done this 18 times across this region of Malawi, bringing clean water to over 11,000 people. Each well has transformed an entire community permanently. For $5,500, we can give 700 people, including every child and teacher at that primary school, access to clean, safe water right in their village. No more crouching at muddy puddles. No more cholera risk. No more children drinking water shared with livestock. Kapili Village has raised $650 so far, 11.8% of our goal. We need $4,850 more to break ground. Help Kapili Village: waterofmercy.com/products/kapil… Can't donate? Please share or repost. Your network might include the donor who helps us reach our goal. Please be the answer to our prayers. #WaterOfMercy #CleanWater #Malawi #Catholic #WaterIsLife #DivineMercy

@BackwardsFeet I’ve never seen the original, but the expectation around it has morphed from everyone SHOULD see it to everyone HAS seen it…years ago I settled on the vague, mysterious response of “I’m waiting to feel called to watch it.” I have yet to regret waiting 🙃

@shannon_last We did this in the convent but name them after popes . All I can remember now is that Chipmunks were John Pauls, bears were Urbans (close-ish to Ursa), Squirrels were Benedicts, and Turkeys were Clements.

Do everyone else’s kids name every single individual animal that comes near the house as well? 🤣 (this one is Johnnie)

@CaptainVatican And put them on the website! I have the bulletin pages for all of my local parishes bookmarked on my phone—I don’t trust a Mass or confession time unless I see it in a CURRENT bulletin!

@PunkyMantilla Reminds me of an old man affectionately known as Jobie (RIP) who rode his riding mower everywhere. Presumably not able to hold a regular license anymore, but he would mow lawns of other seniors. His lawnmower was a welcome sight at nearly every high school sporting event 🥹
