Comment on The First Sunday in Advent–A New Start by Stephen M. McMullen

>>>I’ve told you a little about who I am. Now let me tell you who I’m not. I’m not a theologian. I’m not a liturgist.<<<< In all my years being in music for the church (cantor, choral groups, organist, choir
director) I have found the bext liturgists are the ones who say they are NOT liturgists. I have been doing this since 1971 (music participation)
and experience has born this out. Msgr Don never claimed to be a "liturgist" but yet he was one of the best I ever worked with.

Comment on Senator McCaskill on the DHHS Mandate by mlbuckley

NFP is an extremely effective way to plan a family. Unfortunately too many people want an easy fix. Just pop a pill and you can have sex any time you want. It’s just too hard to abstain a few days each month.

It’s about time SOMEBODY mentioned NFP as a BETTER option to other forms of contraception.
Just like the Stem cell debate: – there’s only EMBRYONIC, right???

Mike,
this and your other blog writings (i.e. homilies) refresh my spirit while away from the Sunday Mass. I am glad for you being part of St. John Nepomuk, keep up the good works there and on this blog!

Comment on We Buried a Priest Yesterday by Stephen M. McMullen, MS

Stephen M. McMullen, MS — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 16:46:25 +0000

Thank you for mentioning Monsignor. Like I said, he was the gold Standard for a priest: Easy to talk to (pastoral), a good administrator,
a really good liturgist, and proud of his appointment of chaplain to His
Holiness. I remember he went out and got a new cassock right away.
I was glad for that. Back then a lot of priests were a little embarrassed
at the honor, and you know that Monsignor did not like calling attention to himself. We used to have a music offering called “Journey to Calvary” and we asked him to speak some reflections after each station. We did not expect much. We were surprised at how much
work and thought he put into it and made the reflection match the words of the next piece of music. I am sorry he is gone. Not only was he a good priest, but a good friend I could talk to.
