“Phlegon, Roman historian wrote: “In the fourth year of the 202nd Olympiad, there was an extraordinary eclipse of the sun: at the sixth hour, the day turned into dark night, so that the stars in heaven were seen; and there was an earthquake.” (Cited in Clarke)

Hey coffee lovers — some good news.
Coffee futures have dropped sharply this week to about US$2.80 per pound, the lowest level since November 2024.
If prices remain at these levels, we could start seeing some relief at the grocery store by summertime.
Having carried a baby diagnosed with a severe birth defect, and after being offered abortion, I both sympathize in new ways with women in this situation who are tempted to abort AND feel more strongly than ever that abortion is horrifically evil.
Today we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Family. As we contemplate this mystery with wonder and gratitude, we think of our families and the light they can bring to the society in which we live.
We each have been given crosses of varying weights and sizes.
My concern when it comes to other peoples cross ends at prayer and assistance. Their crosses are not mine to judge or even describe.
When it comes to my cross, my concern is to carry it like Jesus; with tenacity, with dignity and without complaint.
As for you reading this, I simply must remind you that Jesus sees you. He knows your cross. He can see all the things no one else can, and he’s so proud of the way you carry what you carry.
He knows you fall, he knows that.
He’s not ashamed of your falling, he’s proud of your rising.
He knows that other people have looked at you and judged you, but did so without knowing about the cross you carry. It breaks his heart. He cries with you.
Your cross is heavy, I know and he knows it too.
But what he also knows that you and I can’t until heaven, is the way it gives him glory.
The way it’s preparing you for heaven.
The way it shines his light in a particular way that we would all be lost without.
So, carry that cross.
Carry it well.
Be proud of that heavy, ugly blood stained piece of wood.
It’s helping him save you.
It’s helping him save the world.

Supply management was meant to save the family farm...
In 1972, Canada had nearly 130,000 dairy farms. Today, just 9,100 remain. That’s an average loss of 186 farms every month for over 50 years—all while Canadian dairy products remain among the most expensive in the world.
Remind why we keep supply management?
Pray for this young man, I know it is hard but it is the way of Jesus Christ. The greatest tribute we can make to Charlie is to pray for his assassin to be converted to Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior that Charlie loved so well.
Please pray for Tyler, for his conversion and repentance. Don’t let the hurt and anger harden your heart.
‼️URGENT ROSARY TO PRAY FOR CHARLIE KIRK @charliekirk11 WHO HAS BEEN SHOT IN THE NECK

Political speech must never lead to violence. No matter your views, this kind of attack should horrify everyone.
If you watched what happened today and felt joy, then you are part of the problem.
