Welcome one and all
to Sunday Snippets, the weekly gathering of Catholic bloggers who share their
posts for the week. The main gathering
place is here, at This That
and the Other Thing, home of RAnn,
who, sadly, has announced that this will be the last time she hosts
Sunday Snippets. Many thanks, RAnn, for
keeping the Carnival going for so long. Ave atque Vale, Sunday Snippets.

Now, on to the
week that was. Aside from blogging and working (several jobs), I joined with a
few of my offspring recently to begin tapping our maple trees for syrup; a
little late, but it’s been colder than usual (the coldest February in these

and – “St. Patrick And Slavery To Sin” We see the difference between God’s wisdom and the “wisdom” of the world in the stories of St. Patrick and Julius Caesar
Wednesday – “Abortion Myth # 6” Pro-abortion activists like to tell about “back-alley” abortions killing “5,000-10,000 women a year” when abortion was illegal; as it happens, the truth is rather different
Thursday – “Litany of St. Joseph: A Prayer ForFatherhood” If there’s any saint in particular (after the Blessed mother) we should be asking for intercession right now, St. Joseph is the one
and - “Where Have All The Fathers Gone?” And if you were wondering why we need the intercession of St. Joseph, here’s why
Saturday - "The Opening of Bach's St. Matthew Passion" & "Bach - St. Matthew Passion (Erbarme dich)" Two clips form performances of J.S. Bach's magnificent Lenten masterpiece
