Sunday Snippets--A Catholic Carnival

Come on over to RAnn's blog for Sunday Snippets, a place where Catholic bloggers like me share our posts. I've discovered some wonderful blogs here.  How about sharing yours?



Semper Gaudete! : Only Two This Year

Semper Gaudete! : Soft Kitty Again

Semper Gaudete! : Books Read In The Past Week

Books Read In The Past Week

Books read for the first time are marked with a #
Books, (except Sunday books) are grouped by author, and not necessarily in the order read.

You'll notice that I've changed the format of this weekly post,

Soft Kitty Again

I just have to share what Winky did the other night... too funny!  
I was singing Soft Kitty to him, and right after I sang the words, "happy kitty, sleepy kitty," he purred three times! So we did the "purr, purr, purr" at the end together! It was a nice little duet.

Encouraging news about EWTN's Fr. Anthony

Fr. Anthony hopes to be back on the air in the near future.  Oh, HOW I'm praying for that to happen! https://franciscanmissionaries.c...
