Hello friends,<\/p>\n

I want to point you to two posts that I have made on other sites recently.<\/p>\n

1. The first is\u00a0on the Patheos page celebrating the Year of Faith. In this post, I reflect on the latest Pew Research Survey which finds that more and more people in the US are claiming no affiliation with a religion. I am honored to be a guest blogger for this page on Patheos. Please check it out and share with friends:<\/p>\n

A Positive Look at the Nones<\/a><\/p>\n

2. The second post is on Ignitum Today, a forum for the JPII and B16 generation. Here I reposted a slightly revised blog post on Question 2 the referendum on assisted suicide that is on the MA ballot. Please read and share with friends. The Boston archdiocese has been working non-stop on this initiative. Please help them spread the word. Even if you are not in MA, initiatives like this one will be coming to a state near you so it is important to be armed with information:<\/p>\n

Death with Dignity and Other Euphemisms<\/a><\/p>\n

All affected by the storms are in my prayers. Please feel free to send me prayer requests via the comment boxes at any time. I will happily pray for them and put them in our sisters\u2019 intention book in our chapel.<\/p>\n

Happy Reading!<\/p>\n
