Cappella Romana – Angelic Light

Last updated on: December 15, 2013 at 10:08 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

I put my advanced copy of the new CD from Cappella Romana, Angelic Light – Music From Eastern Cathedrals, in the home stereo, unannounced, and let it play while the Mrs was cooking dinner. I’ve done such a thing before, often going unnoticed. Not this time. After a while, the wife said: “This is nice … who is it?” Later, the high school senior (a vocal student at a Performing Arts school) came out of her room Let me repeat:... Read more

CARTOON: St Patrick’s Day

Last updated on: March 17, 2012 at 11:44 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Image thanks to Frank … the story, thanks to Wiki: St. Patrick banishes all snakes from Ireland Pious legend credits St. Patrick with banishing snakes from the island, chasing them into the sea after they attacked him during a 40-day fast he was undertaking on top of a hill. This hagiographic theme draws on the mythography of the staff of Moses, messenger of Yahweh to gentile Egyptians. In Exodus 7:8–7:13 , Moses and Aaron use their staffs in their struggle... Read more

St Paul, Space Aliens & Spedden

Last updated on: March 15, 2012 at 5:05 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Some pics from my recent speaking engagement in Alberta, Canada … Y‘all? This is a landing pad for interplanetary space ships in St Paul, Alberta! You can read about it here. My guide, Caroline and I happened by St Paul’s most famous landmark on a spring-like day (by Alberta standards). I so wanted to get into the Visitor’s Center — but it was closed in anticipation of warmer temps. Kinda funky, eh? Should a visitor from, say, Kgahobuoiuighii, pop in... Read more

Last updated on: March 6, 2012 at 7:47 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

NANTICOKE – As the Rev. Adam Sexton consecrated the communion bread Sunday at church, his eldest son rushed to the altar to tell him their home next door was engulfed in flames. Without hesitation, Sexton knew what to do: continue the service. “It doesn’t matter what happens. I have to center my attention on consecrating the gifts,” the Rev. Sexton explained Monday. After accounting for his eight children and making sure his wife had called 911, Sexton finished the final... Read more

Last updated on: February 25, 2012 at 8:58 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

I started to dance at the age of four and I almost became a ballerina … An excerpt from Faith & Humor: When I took the veil, I threw away my ballet slippers and my tutu, as well as all the photographs which showed me dancing. Yet now I have such a strong desire to dance.” The priest said nothing to... Read more
