The Long Island Catholic: A compass in the cards

My latest Long Island Catholic column is the rather oddly named "A compass in the cards."

The "compass" is a gift we can all give to our children!

The saint and the schoolgirl

I hope you get a kick out of this recollection of St. Mary's Winfield in the sunny long ago. Just please don't be too appalled at what a lazy student I was. :)

My first column at The Long Island Catholic

I am very pleased to say that I will be writing a new column at The Long Island Catholic called "The Catholic Home."

Here is the debut piece, a story about our first (of three) visits to see Our Lady of America during the visit of the statue to New York City: Our Mother's Care.

[Please click here for archived column, "Our Mother's Care."]

Much more needs to be said about the graces received during this time, and I hope to post pictures here, but for now, thank you for clicking over to read the column!

[The organizers of the event encouraged the children to touch the statue, lest they appear too presumptuous in this picture!]
