  • March 7, 2021 | the Third Sunday of Lent 2 | March 7, 2021
    Since the Passover of the Jews was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. He found in the temple area those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, as well as the money changers seated there. He made a whip out of chords and drove them all out of the temple area. Jn 2:13b-15a Cuando se acercaba la Pascua de los judios, Jesús llegó a Jerusalén y encontró en el templo a los vendedores de bueyes, ovejas, y palomas, y a los cambistas con sus mesas. Entonces hizo un látigo de cordeles y los echó del templo. Jn 2, 13-15 I was recently talking with my kids about why we choose as a family to eat mostly health foods STEWARDSHIP REFLECTIONS and avoid more unhealthy junk foods when possible. It was a basic talk on cause and effect. When we eat junk food, we start to feel bad because our bodies need veggies and protein to grow big and strong. Something that came up was the concept of free will and human beings’ ability to choose freely for themselves which path they will take. This led the conversation to the reality that while everyone is free to choose, one cannot choose the consequences of those choices. I am free to choose to run on ice, but the nature of ice and the laws of gravity will eventually catch up to me. I am free to touch a fire, but I am not free to choose whether it burns or not. This concept seems fairly straightforward, yet in today’s culture there is a skewed sense of freedom.

It is the only agency responsible for endorsing and granting faculties to Catholic chaplains and deacons in service to those populations. Archbishop Timothy Broglio is the Ordinary of the Archdiocese and Bishop Richard Higgins, Bishop Richard Spencer, Bishop Neal Buckon, and Bishop Robert Coyle are the four Auxiliaries.

Ph.D. thesis, Canterbury Christ Church University. Contact: [email protected] THE DAUGHTERS OF HENRY III by Abigail Sophie Armstrong Canterbury Christ Church University Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2018 ii Abstract This thesis examines Henry III and Eleanor of Provence’s three daughters: Margaret, Beatrice and Katherine. It is a comparative study of their lives and relationships with their parents, arguing that the English king and queen cared greatly for the welfare and prosperity of their daughters from birth. These close family bonds continued after the daughters’ marriages and departures for their husbands’ courts, and both Henry and Eleanor continued to be strong influences in their daughters’ adult lives. This study contributes to the historiography concerning the role of medieval royal daughters. It demonstrates that Margaret and Beatrice were not forgotten about by their natal family following their nuptials but, rather, these relationships continued, and their new marital families were quickly integrated within the larger English royal family.
