Fourth Sunday after Easter...

collect from today's Mass Extraordinary Form:

O God, Who dost unite the souls of the faithful in one will, grant Thy people to love that which Thou dost command, to desire that which Thou dost promise; so that our hearts, even in the midst of earthly vicissitudes, may be set on the place where true joys are. Through our Lord.

Happy Mother's Day...

Reaganite's Sunday Funnies 

We're headed out to church and this lucky "Mom to many fur people" is being treated to lunch out.

You know the rules:  Play nice while I'm gone, use your indoor voices, and keep the sand in the sandbox. 

 
 

Happy Mother's Day...
