Why Change the Confiteor? The New Mass Translation!
Is Beelzebub Bull?

This Sunday’s gospel shows us Jesus casting out a demon. Some people, even clergy, have recently claimed that all this demon talk is just the way that pre-scientific people explained mental illnesses that they did not yet understand. So what’s the Church say about this interpretation? Do demons exist, and if so, what do we do about them? In this article, we try to provide a few answers! This article is also available in Spanish!
Superhero of the Week!

His family had big plans for his future. But God’s plan was even bigger. Saturday, January 28, the Church celebrates the memory of one of the most influential thinkers of all time. You’ve GOT to get to know this saint!
Last call for ROME Sweet HOME Pilgrimage!
While Christianity was born in the Middle East, it was Italy that became, within a few decades after Christ’s resurrection, the Crossroads of the Christian world. Dr. D'Ambrosio, Mrs. D'Ambrosio and Kelly Wahlquist personally invite you today to join our Italy: Crossroads of Christendom Pilgrimage this May 2012, in preparation of the Year of Faith.
The deadline is FAST approaching - Don't miss this amazing opportunity to travel through Rome, Subiaco, Assisi, Florence, Orvieto, and Bologna. Come face to faith with the apostles Peter and Paul, the native Italians Sts. Benedict, Clare, and Francis, the Spaniard St. Ignatius of Loyola, the Greek missionaries Sts. Cyril and Methodius, the great artists Michelangelo and Raphael! The goal of this amazing pilgrimage? To grow in our faith, build fellowship and to appreciate depth and breadth of the Catholic culture represented by the abundant monuments to faith to be found in central Italy. The Holy Father ensures that pilgrims to Rome will "return to their homelands strengthened in their faith, and born aloft by the Holy Spirit in the journey onward and upward to their heavenly home!" Come to www.rometrip.info for more details and to download your invitation today! Before time runs out!

Freedom - Matthew Pinto In Freedom, you will meet 12 people who, through the Theology of the Body have encountered Jesus Christ in the flesh, who offered the truth that set them free. Through their new-found freedom, these people have come to rediscover the meaning of their very existence. Many have had dramatic, life-altering experiences; others had buried truths, innate in all of us, awaken within them. All of them have discovered for themselves that the Theology of the Body answers the two most fundamental questions: 1) What does it mean to be human? 2) How do I live my life in a way that brings true happiness and fulfillment?
