Last updated on: March 24, 2008 at 9:19 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

She was but a young maiden of Nazareth when she was visited by an angel. Unlike our first mother, who spoke with an angel in the guise of a serpent, this angel appeared as a man, Gabriel. He said to her, “Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!” One would assume that such a visit from such a being would be quite unsettling. Realizing her fear, the heavenly visitor says, “Do not be... Read more

The Healing of Yuck

Last updated on: March 23, 2008 at 11:28 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

That Scary Ol’ Easter Story

Last updated on: March 18, 2008 at 5:31 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

“Easter is a special time in churches,” the letter from the publisher says. “It’s a time of celebration and thankfulness.
