Interesting, no more greenhouse effect...reminds me of our home parish that one priest said was built in the shape of a bishop's mitre.

Day 2 of the Appeal--Does Your Spiritual Life Need a Boost?
First, a big thank you to all who responded yesterday. Your efforts put both books in the Top 10 Catholic bestsellers on Amazon.
I'm on the radio this morning talking about How to Get the Most Out of the Eucharist and in preparation for the radio appearance I reread most of the book last night and even though I wrote it and know whats in it, I found it gave me a real boost to re-focusing on what really matters in life--it also reminded me that an alternative title that I had suggested for the book was Living the Eucharist or A Spirituality of the Eucharist--both would fit what is within (which you can search both Amy and my book online in the links below).
There is so much to be thankful for and we need to be reminded of that daily, in different ways both Amy's Here Now and my book help the reader (even if it is ourselves) rediscover that!
I'm asking the readers of this blog and Amy's Open Book to consider buying one copy of her excellent book Here. Now. A Catholic Guide to the Good Life.
and one of my How To Get The Most Out Of The Eucharist
--two books that can give your spiritual life a real boost! We believe we have written two books that can genuinely help... consider buying them as a gift for someone if you already own a copy, if you don't get one.
All proceeds from royalties and Amazon affiliate links will be donated to Food for the Poor.

30 Day Appeal--Getting the Most Out of Your Catholic Faith!
Starting today, I'm asking the readers of this blog and Amy's Open Book to consider buying one copy of her excellent book Here. Now. A Catholic Guide to the Good Life.and of my How To Get The Most Out Of The Eucharist
--two books that can help you or your Catholic friends find true joy by deepening their relationship with God as Catholics.
Too much of the time we complain about our faith, I believe this is the "weeds" or "tares" sown by the enemy. Both books that Amy and I have written come out of the struggle of trying to focus on the Word sown by Our Lord and not that of the enemy.
If you already own a copy of both books, thank you. I'm sure you have found them to be both challenging and an excellent way to get more from your Faith no matter what the enemy may sow in your path. Please consider buying another copy of both to give as a gift to your Catholic friends, you might even consider organizing a study group built around both books.
We often complain about Catholics not buying books but I have found that one of the reasons that Catholics fail where other Christians don't is that Catholic authors often hide their light under a basket. I confess to doing this myself.
Amy and I both believe we have written two books that speak to the angst that daily appears all over the Catholic blogdom.
At the end of the thirty-day period Amy and I will donate whatever royalties we earn from the sales of these books to Food for the Poor. We will keep you abreast of how much there is to donate daily!
Thank you and may God bless you!
Morning Update: Already $55.71 will be donated to Food for the Poor...THANKS!

Pope Expresses Sympathy for Victims at Kusadasi
I spent a few days here once in 1978, beautiful place. The local area has a very direct opinion on the whole thing here.
Cardinal Secretary of State Angelo Sodano has sent a telegram of condolence, in the Pope's name, to Archbishop Edmond Farhat, apostolic nuncio to Turkey, for Saturday's bomb attack in the Turkish tourist resort of Kusadasi:
"Informed of the deadly explosion that took place recently in Turkey, the Holy Father implores the mercy of the Almighty for the people who lost their lives in the horrific attack and the consolation of God on their suffering families. He express his heartfelt sympathy to the numerous people injured in this drama and to their families, as well as to the Turkish authorities and people."
