Virgin & the Holy Child and Charles Wesley. This is how we roll in the Arnold home: Reformed, Catholic, and Methodist. — The full expression of English Christianity.

If you’ve got children, you should get this book and read it to them every few months. It’s a great, age-appropriate, and approachable way to casually talk about safety with smaller children.

Currently reading: Diary of a Country Priest by Georges Bernanos 📚— Just finished chapter 4. Such an odd and wonderful book! I’m not entirely certain what all is going on, but I have deep sympathy for the priest and relate to his struggles among his village.

Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. For in that he died, he died unto sin once, but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Rom 6:9-11

I’m “really enjoying this playlist” years old. 🇫🇷 🥖⚜️🍷

So, curious, how many other ministries or parishes are using the 2019 TLE? Am I the only one?

My absolute favorite subject at our homeschool co-op is cooking. I love “reviewing” our children’s work. 👨‍🍳

There is no greater joy as a priest than seeing God do a powerful work in the life of a parishioner. — God has prepared a feast of joy and happiness for his laborers. It is to our own detriment if we chose to sit in our busyness. In the fields of His harvest there is great joy!
