The altar has a linen cloth on it, which is white if a topper is used. The top linen is the color of the season, or indicative of what is being celebrated. (I.e a feast day, a Holy Day) etc. Candles are on the altar and the book with the prayers and the order of … Read more

As long as you are a Catholic in good standing, (i.e. Attend Mass and receive the Sacraments) it doesn't matter if your spouse-to-be is Catholic or not, confirmed or not.  You may have a full Mass and you (as the baptised practicing Catholic) wil receive the sacrament of marriage.  Your new spouse may not receive … Read more

Christians use the stories of the Bible to understand the repercussions of being disobedient to God. We use the words of Jesus to inspire us and teach us the ways of the Lord. The Bible is a priceless guide of how to run your life and find happiness and salvation.

Chihuahuas are the cutest, little lap dogs in the world. There is, however, no such thing as a "teacup" chihuahua. That is not a trait of the breed that is recognized by the American Kennel Association. It is a term used by breeders to sell their puppies, by making the buying think that they are … Read more

Saint Bernards have been overbred since the movie, "Beethoven." A huge demand for that breed occurred and careless, greedy breeders didn't care about the gentle temperament which is so characteristic of that particular type of dog. That overbreeding has caused aggressive, and less than gentle behavior. You have to safeguard other people from your dog's … Read more

The only thing that flushes is the toilet, when you drink lots of beer. Beer has alcohol in it, and dehydrates the body. It causes you to need to urinate often, but that doesn't mean your body is "flushed". You will need to drink lots of water to replace much -needed fluids.

Jesus gave Peter the "keys to the kingdom".  He was considered the Vicar of Christ and the first Pope.   The lineage has continued to this day.  Each new "leader of the Faith" has been elected and given this awesome duty.  The ring has been a symbol of this office since the time of Jesus. To kiss the ring is … Read more

Everything they had known was gone.  The Lord was gone and it was a waiting game now, … Read more

There really could be several reasons.  First of all you need to drink lots of water.  When the stool gets dry you have to strain more, and it can be painful.  Also spicy, hot foods can cause the veins of the rectum to dilate and can cause pain.   You need to increase fluids, increase fiber in your diet and … Read more

Even though it is unusual, an infant can get shingles. Shingles are caused by exposure to the zoster virus.  That is the same virus that causes chicken pox.  In older people, if they have an exposure to the virus AND have already had chicken pox, they may develop shingles.  Sometimes the chicken pox they had earlier doesn't give … Read more

I don't know this for a fact, but I would guess that Eve means "before".   As in Christmas "Eve," being the day before Christmas and New Year's" Eve " being the day before the new year begins.   Eve was the first woman made by God.  Therefore she was on the earth "before" all other women.  Make sense?

Mary, the Mother of Jesus is the most popular mother in the Bible.  Without her saying "yes" to God and carrying the infant Jesus in her womb.....we would not have our Lord and Saviour. She kept him safe and raised him to manhood so that the prophesy of the coming of the Messiah could be fulfilled.   Can … Read more

The altar is the special place in which the Mass is celebrated. Think of it as a "table" with a cloth, candles and the food.  Our "food" is the Holy Eucharist.  This is the body of Jesus as was written in the Bible at the Last Supper.  The Catholics received this body of Jesus as a way of … Read more

Absolutely!  The only restriction dictated by Canon Law in the area of fasting during Lent, is to abstain from meat (NOT meat by- products such as eggs, cheese and milk.)  Canon Law states that one must "fast" (which means limiting the intake of food) on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday.  To "fast" means to have 1 large meal … Read more

Hi Guest, I will pass on some information that I got last month.  I got it from the American Kennel Club, because I had the same question. There is no such thing as a "teacup" chihuahua.  That is a marketing ploy to imply that you are getting a super small chihuahua puppy.  The breed is "chihuahua".   None of the … Read more

No, don't be worried, but pay attention to that and the frequency of them.   They may occur due to sinus congestion or pressure from a small broken blood vessel.  It isn't the fact that you had a bloody nose, what you want to watch is how often you get them or if they will not stop bleeding.  My … Read more
