Laudate Dominum: A True Sanctuary
by Marie Paulhamus
It is said and it is truth, that nothing happens by chance, that with God there are no coincidences. An example of this came by way of a wonderful steward who follows our web site, Marie Paulhamus. She shared with us a marvelous animal sanctuary that exists in the mountains of Virginia at a Hermitage. The devoted Monk who founded the Hermitage created a place amid quiet mountains to which the cats and dogs and other discarded domestic creatures of this world could find their “forever earthly home.” Living at the Hermitage is living the hidden life. All is done for the glory of God and all income and material things come by way of donations. There is need to build more pet facilities, donated veterinarian services, volunteers to help with the animals and of course importantly, FOOD and donations for food.
This is such a miraculous apostolate! Won’t you please help! And please, click here to enjoy the inspiring article written by a spiritual supporter of the Hermitage, Marie Paulhamus.

Some would be authorities would have us believe that achieving such intimacy is first of all ridiculous and secondly, represents our need to transmit human characteristics upon animals, thus making the relationship dysfunctional.

Star Gazing
The asteroid Apophis, named for the Egyptian God the Destroyer, the demon serpent of darkness, will come very close to the earth in 2029. As a Catholic, I find that the name alone is a little unsettling. It was originally discovered in 2004 and caused a stir when scientists thought that a direct impact was probable. Since then, their prognostications have changed. On April 13, 2029, it seems that this 1,100 to 1,500-foot object will actually pass between the earth and our orbiting communication satellites. Closer than our orbiting satellites? You bet. READ MORE...
