Very good news! Not only is Abrego Garcia alive, Salvadoran authorities, reversing their initial refusal, allowed him to meet with Senator Van Hollen, who called Abrego Garcia’s wife to “pass along his message of love.” The police-state machine blinking in the harsh light of global scrutiny?

In the final stages of a (currently very long) essay on Fr. Vincent McNabb O.P., a dominican friar and Catholic radical of the interwar period, deeply influential on Dorothy Day, Chesterton, Maritain and (I strongly suspect) J.R.R. Tolkien. McNabb’s activism was in part an extension of the Arts and Crafts movement’s political expression,…

A teacher at the school where my husband works said he shared my newsletter on writing by hand with his students to help them understand why they have to learn penmanship and turn in handwritten papers.

“He humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death—even death on a cross.

Therefore God also highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”

(Philippians 2:8-11)

According to some folks on social media, educated people don't believe in 'fairy tales'

The data says: Someone with a masters degree is just as likely to believe there is life after death as someone who didn't finish high school.

Per tradition, I’m putting way too much work into the next post. It’s morphed into a deep dive on one scene from Inside Llewyn Davis. I need a hobby.

“These three events in our Lord’s life—the Last Supper, the crucifixion and the resurrection—form a single redemptive act, which we call the Paschal Mystery. In the same way, ‘Though chronologically three days,’ the three days of the Paschal Triduum ‘are liturgically one day unfolding for us the unity of Christ’s Paschal Mystery.’ Likewi…

Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession.

For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathise with our weaknesses, but one who has similarly been tested in every way, yet without sin.

So let us confidently approach the throne of grace…

He fled violent gangs in El Salvador that were threatening him and his family.

A U.S. court protected him from deportation. He got a work permit, a job, a wife, and three kids. No criminal record. Then ICE deported him anyway—by "mistake"—and dumped him into a Salvadoran prison built to house the very gangs he ran from.

No trial. No heari…
