Woooooo Hoooo! We know that CWG has shown some great growth, but now we have great evidence of the fact that people have their eyes ON US as an org. Follow this link to see Sister Marie Paul Curley’s (Ed/Author Daughters of St. Paul) wonderful and respectful commentary and review […]
My Holy Valentine
Here we are! It’s about that time again. Winter stubbornly clings and we are breathless with the hope that grey will soon be replaced with gold and that someone will finally love us! Yep it’s Valentine’s Day once more. More than a hallmark holiday, the idea of love and anti-loneliness […]

As Catholics, we have a reputation for being basically incompetent when it comes to knowledge of and application of the principles found in scripture.

Rock Star Retro
Whoop, here it is, Advent again! The end of the calendar year, the start of the Church year, all the familiar characters. In our Sunday liturgies, we hear about endings, beginnings, signs and those who remind us to stay awake and prepare. In particular, our attention is called to John […]

But…..It’s Just Me!
So we have arrived at the place that Bishop Fulton Sheen, John XXIII and JPII told us was imminent. We’re there, the society that scoffs at all forms of life, ridicules God and has named every sin as good if it suits your pleasure and “hurts no one”. Wow. I […]
