Zumba & The New Evangelization: 3 Lessons I Learned Today

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:45 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

Today, shortly after the Supreme Court’s Hobby Lobby decision was announced, I had a decision to make. I could stay at home and add my voice to the many other Catholic bloggers who would be weighing in on this major news and its impact upon religious liberty. Or I could meet my girlfriends to attend my very first Zumba class at the gym as I had scheduled — in bright red so I would skip it — on my calendar.... Read more

Sweet Tweets for 6/27/14 — Sacred Heart of Jesus & A Yoke I Can Handle

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:45 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

I’m feeling overwhelmed today. It’s likely the cumulative effect of the end of a busy week, the end of a busy month, a massive to do list in preparation for our upcoming epic road trip, and work being done on the outside of my house. Regardless of the reasons, I woke up today feeling both exhausted and cranky. And then I made my way to my morning prayer time, and today’s Gospel passage from Matthew 11 wrapped its arms around...

European Grassroots Antiracist Movement (EGAM) Pays Respects to Murambi Genocide Victims

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:45 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

Today, I continue my 100 day series remembering the twentieth anniversary of Rwandan genocide. Please join me in prayer for those lives lost and impacted in this tragedy. #NeverAgain. LMH When I saw the photo in this tweet from “EGAM” – the European Grassroots Antiracist Movement — it took my breath away.

Instrumentum Laboris: What We Need to Know

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:45 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

It’s likely that we’ll begin hearing soon from the mainstream media on today’s release of Instrumentum Laboris (working document) for the 3rd Extraordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops (to be held October 5-19). Since this document deals with survey results on several culturally significant marriage and family topics, we may get a fair amount of “spin” on the information contained within the document itself. To bring ourselves us to speed on what’s really happening with this Synod (instead of what... Read more

On the Nativity of St. John the Baptist: JtB & Me

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:45 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

Today, we celebrate the Solemnity of Nativity of the St. John the Baptist. In his homily for today, Pope Francis pointed us to St. John the Baptist (or as I always call him in my head “JtB”) as a fitting role model for us in our daily walk as Christians: At the Vatican website, we find the Holy Father’s homily pointing us to St. John the Baptist’s three primary roles: preparation, discernment and diminishment. Elizabeth Scalia beautifully enlightens us on... Read more

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:45 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

Today, we commemorate “World Refugee Day”. According to the website of the United Nations: “Most of the world’s refugees – 86 per cent — live in the developing world, compared to 70 per cent 10 years ago. Most of these countries have kept their doors open to people in search of safety, and have shown a generosity that is often well beyond their means.
