Friday Frivolity: From the Square to the Diamond
Since it was recently reported that the late Pope John Paul II will soon be declared a canonized Saint, I thought it would be nice to have a JP2-related Friday Frivolity this week.

Wise Words on Wednesday: Welcoming Party
Today’s quotation seems very appropriate since I arrived back into San Diego last night. Who would you like in your heavenly welcoming party?
Just in case God asks who I want to [meet me in Heaven], I’ve got my list ready.
My desired greeting team includes not only my father and grandmother, but also John Fisher and John Paul II, Teresa of Avila, Catherine of Sienna , Fr. Caj, Sr. Rose, Sr. Diane, Blessed Mary, and Jesus Himself. All waiting to receive me as the newest arrival into the family of God once and for all. Waiting to say, “Welcome home!”

This reminded me of an amazing podcast episode by Jimmy Akin from Catholic Answers. In this podcast episdoe he talks about how Catholicism might respond to space colonization. It makes me so happy that someone else is out there thinking about this stuff! 😀

I haven’t posted either a Ryan Gosling Meme or a Catholic pick-up line in quite a while, so I decided it was time to kill two birds with one stone…
