VirtuousPla.net!

Last updated on: August 21, 2011 at 9:11 pm   By Sarah Babbs

Friends, there is a new website making a splash across the Catholic blog-o-sphere: VirtuousPla.net. It’s tagline is: The Social Network of the JP2 and B16 Generation So awesome! It has sections covering any and all topics that would be of interest to young adult Catholics, with sections on life, new media, religion, and books, to name a few. And the website is just so pretty. It looks so clean and professional, I love it. Also, yours truly will be a... Read more

Thoughts on Saturday Night

Last updated on: August 21, 2011 at 12:13 am   By Sarah Babbs

  It catches my breath every time I read it, the challenge of living this out is so terrifying: There is a terrible hunger for love. We all experience that in our lives – the pain, the loneliness. We must have the courage to recognize it. The poor you may have right in your own family. Find them. Love them.   Just something to think about.   Read more

7 Quick Takes Friday

Last updated on: August 12, 2011 at 10:39 pm   By Sarah Babbs

It’s still Friday for two more hours! Visit Jen for more quick takes. 7. We are going to the Indiana State Fair on Sunday! I’m so excited. For the last few years when we went I would think, “I can’t wait until we have a child to bring to the fair and show all the animals to.” I’m eager for Maggie to see a cow, horse, chicken, and pig for the first time. I love the 4-H projects: the gorgeous... Read more

On the Friendship and Fellowship of Women

Last updated on: August 11, 2011 at 9:26 am   By Sarah Babbs

We were sitting in a circle in my small living room, the scent of lilacs and vanilla filling the air. Five women, together to study the words of Blessed John Paul II, to grow in grace and fellowship with one another. All of us mothers, some with children here to hold, some with little ones in Heaven. Some of us old friends, some new and meeting for the first time. About ten years separates us in age from the youngest... Read more

The Long Awaited Maggie Update

Last updated on: August 10, 2011 at 7:16 pm   By Sarah Babbs

I was looking at some old posts the other day, and I realized that I haven’t written about Maggie in a long time! Since I’m sure at least some of you only stick around to see her sweet face from time to time, prepare for a Maggie update. 1. She is just about 7.5 months old! As cliche as it sounds, it has gone so fast, despite moments and days (like today) which moved excrutiatingly slow. She has no teeth,... Read more

Social Justice: What the Church Sees

Last updated on: August 4, 2011 at 8:00 am   By Sarah Babbs

In order to kick off this series exploring social justice and Catholic social teaching, I thought it would be wise to begin with a post explaining what I mean by “social justice”.  In some sense, trying to define it is like trying to nail jello to a wall, but using the lens of the Church, I will give it my best shot. The word Justice has many different connotations.  The most common definition of justice would be something like this... Read more

Fire Starter

Last updated on: July 28, 2011 at 10:01 pm   By Sarah Babbs

“If you are what you should be, you would set the world ablaze” -Catherine of Sienna “You can’t start a fire, worrying about your little world falling apart” – Bruce Springsteen Those two quotes have been sitting in my brain for a while now. I keep wanting to put them together. The Bruce Springsteen song, Dancing in the Dark, is on my workout playlist. Every time it comes on, as I’m padding along on the treadmill, I think to myself,... Read more

The Not-So-Secret Life of Bees

Last updated on: July 27, 2011 at 2:53 pm   By Sarah Babbs

Elizabeth is one of my closest friends and Maggie’s godmother. She’s also the author of a wonderful food blog called Coppertop Kitchen. She educates her readers about food, cooking, and she makes a mean maple walnut cake. Go and check out her blog, you won’t be sorry you did! I asked her to share with us today about honeybees and her post is, as always, fascinating and delicious. Thanks, Elizabeth! ******************************************** Hello there, Fumbling Toward Grace readers! I am so... Read more
