By Fr. Glenn Jones:

The roads are already beginning to clog with RVs as the snowbirds migrate northward. And as April ends, we come upon May Day.

Now, May Day (May 1) is a day of many aspects in different cultures. It has the aspect of the celebration of spring, but also of labor movements, and is one of the more important celebrations of communist and socialist Read More

Like a hydra, you cut off one head, and two spring up in its place.”

Probably most of us have been the subject of the rumor mill at one time or another. People love to speculate about the faults of others—very likely so Read More

When I was in eighth grade, my “reading” teacher began each class with a list of ten words. We then had to use our (paper) thesauruses and produce a list of synonyms for each word. I found the task incredibly tedious.

Today, I am grateful for the tedium! The exercise impressed upon me the power and nuances of words and language. Take the word “dominion”. In a majority of English translations Read More
