The beauty of creation

reflects the infinite beauty of the Creator

341 The beauty of the universe: The order and harmony of the created world results from the diversity of beings and from the relationships which exist among them. Man discovers them progressively as the laws of nature. They call forth the admiration of scholars. The beauty of creation reflects the infinite beauty of the Creator and ought to inspire the respect and submission of man’s intellect and will. ~ from the Catechism of the Catholic Church

no soup for you! …just kidding

soupandstories

I missed the first week of this exciting series at The Practicing Catholic because I was on the road, but it’s never too late to jump on board and get started. I have to say, typical Lent for me…I can’t get my act together until Holy Week, and then it’s Easter and…well…enough about that.

Lisa Schmidt explains the concept at her blog, where she’s hosting 40 days of soup recipes, and stories to go along with them. What a great idea, right?

I mean, who doesn’t love soup? And who doesn’t love a story.

I don’t want to steal her thunder, so click on the logo and read her explanation, catch up on the few posts you might have missed, and check back here in a few weeks, cuz guess who’s got an entry coming up?

That’s right, lil ole me.

so what’s going on today?

I’m hanging out at CatholicMom with a post about my parish’s annual medical mission to Haiti. They are there right now so first, send up a prayer for the success of the mission, and then follow this link to read my post.
