What? Me, Seminary? HT Jean-MichelThis, ladies & gentleman, is no laughing matter! It’s scary to know what personal information is being made public about us these days!For example.

Discover Jesus … in the Quran

Last updated on: November 17, 2006 at 9:49 pm   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

West University, a prominent township just west of Rice University — part of greater Houston — and where St George Church is located … Picture this: Big, clean Cadillac Escalade … with a bumper sticker in the middle of the left rear window: DISCOVERJesus in the Quranwww.freequran.org If you must, here ’tis.

HUMOUR: I Don’t Like Fasting

Last updated on: November 17, 2006 at 12:31 pm   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

I don’t like Fasting.It’s too expensive.We have to change our daily status quo.We have to give up our “same-oh same-oh.” It costs so much more to switch over to Organic Soy Milk from our regular milk. Veggie Burger costs more than hamburger, and eating out at Red Lobster is killing our budget! The other day in coffee hour, we were talking about one of the ethnic groups in our church, and how they always mess things up for the rest... Read more

After the Thrill is Dawn

Last updated on: November 17, 2006 at 8:22 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

I was blessed to read Dawn’s manuscript back in the summer, while at Camp St Raphael. You’d think that would have given me enough time to produce my own review. Slack, slack, slack. In the meantime, as the time nears, here’s one from another … In her new book, The Thrill of the Chaste, Dawn Eden writes with a naked truth and passion seen in few writers since Augustine and Pascal. Sprinkled with wit and quips, Dawn tackles a serious... Read more

RIP: Sheila-Mary Douglas

Last updated on: November 14, 2006 at 2:45 pm   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

She had a white stripe of hair, off center from between the eyes, swooping back from her forehead — always immaculately coiffed. (She’s pictured here in red with my family back in July.) My wife was her “Godmother.” We always joked in a flirtatious way, Sheila and I. The accent, almost Cockney; the fiery personality, incorrigible. Dynamis! She adored her husband. After he died, everyone thought she’d soon follow. She’d followed others — even me. She followed me out of... Read more

Last updated on: November 14, 2006 at 7:54 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Clippard likened this situation to that of the Russian Orthodox Church, whose priests were debating what color vestments they should wear as the communists were invading Russia. “Can that happen to us?” he said. “You bet it can.” This too … The Saudi Arabian Royal Family and the Saudi government have opened and funded 1,156 Moslem study centers in universities across North America, he said: 138 in the United States, 28 in Canada — including three in the University of... Read more
