Two new blogs!

Two new blogs to welcome to blog world...


Firstly, Orthfully Catholic:

We are a group of English Seminarians dedicated to Holy Mother Church, the Magisterium and Pope Benedict, the Vicar of Christ. Our aim is to promote the New Evangelisation through a radical dedication to orthodoxy and the Church's Sacred Tradition. We aim to promote devotion to Our Lord's Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity in the Blessed Sacrament and to His Most Holy Mother. If you are serious about Catholicism then this is the place for you. Welcome! Pax, The Seminarians


I really like their site. Lots of interesting posts.

They also have a really nice video of 2 Franciscan Sisters of the Renewal making their first vows (remember I posted that picture a few days ago of Chris & I with Fr. Benedict Groeschel, the founder of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal...?) Well here are 2 of the girls making their first vows! They look so over-joyed! How beautiful!


and secondly,

GodzDogs




The site looks great & is written by student-brothers of the English Dominican Province & will be launched properly in Advent. I am sure they will have lots of thought-provoking posts!

"Why Godzdogz"?


The name 'Dominican', although derived from the name of our holy father and Founder, St Dominic, is also a pun on the Latin phrase "Domini canes" which means 'Dogs of the Lord.'

This was itself based on a dream which St Dominic's mother, Blessed Juana de Aza, had in 1170 when she was pregnant: she saw a black and white dog with a torch in its mouth setting the world ablaze. This was interpreted to refer to St Dominic and his spiritual children, the Dominican Order - in their black and white habits - whose preaching brings the light of Gospel truth to shine upon and inflame the world with divine love.

And so, this site represents the 'barks' of this pack of 'God's dogs', hopefully gathering all into the flock of Jesus Christ, the Good Shepherd!
