Three area grocery stores are now offering a “Family Aisle.”  This means that the aisle does not have any inappropriate magazines in it, i.e. NO TRASH!  If you check out through this aisle, your poor children won’t have to run the gauntlet!  It is the first aisle and it is always open.  I would like to encourage our people from that area of town to support this store and personally thank the management.  Even a phone call to thank the store manager would be very good.

This message is going out to those who have subscribed to the RSS feed at latin-mass.org. The main feed has been updated to accomodate the increasing variety of content that is becoming available. If you only wish to receive Announcements and Bulletins via RSS, then you can continue to use your current feed which should be http://latin-mass.org/spd/taxonomy/term/1+2/0/feed.

However, if you would like to continue receiving the current content, plus have other types of content via RSS, such as the addition of new web links, sermons, etc., then you'll need to subscribe to the new feed. The new feed is being run through Feedburner and the URL is:

Why Feedburner?  Two reasons: 1) The feed coming directly out of the site created confusion for some people who were unfamiliar with, or new to, RSS.  Feedburner fixes that problem.  2)  In the unlikely event that the main feed needs to be changed again in the future, it can be changed within Feedburner, rather than requiring subscribers to upated their feed settings. 

 

 

 

According to Blessed are the Pure in Heart, Bishop Finn’s pastoral letter about the dangers of pornography, “90% of 8-16 year olds using the Internet have viewed pornography on line (most while doing homework). 2004; Eleven years old is the average age of first Internet exposure to pornography. 2004” As if this isn’t horrifying enough, consider: a) that these statistics are 3 years old; b) what this means in terms of the life-long battle for purity (vs. bondage to sin) for each of these young people; c) given that, objectively speaking, viewing pornography is always mortally sinful, what this means in terms of supernatural life (& salvation) for each of these young people; and d) what this means for the salvation of the parents who provided such opportunities to their children. [Think of millstones (Mt 18:6)]

When Our Lady of Fatima showed the children that terrifying vision of hell, they could see the souls falling in like snowflakes in a blizzard – and these statistics make it easy to see why…
