Although autumn‘s been around for a couple of weeks …
We haven’t officially experienced fall climate until this week!
Meanwhile, I’m enjoying GOD‘s lush greenery while it still lasts!

What do you think of Pope Francis‘ Laudato Si environmental encyclical?
Praise Be His creation!
I’m taking full advantage of taking care of my share of †GOD’s† ☼creations☼ and creatures this weekend!
Following a long week filled with grading speeches and continuing my doctoral dissertation data processing, I beat the heat before today’s rain hit to tend to the garden.
St. Francis of Assisi ~ the Patron Saint of Animals ~ welcomes GOD’s creatures into this Garden of Creation!
In bloom …
Fully blossomed!
To yours truly, gardening is very therapeutic…
And to my fine, furry friends, this gives them a chance to peer into the great outdoors!
Piano Cat Annie is ready to attack while Big Sis Asia stays laidback!

Happy 🌍Earth🌎 🌏Day🌞 yesterday!
Bishop Mike blesses the tree that he & Angelo Catholic School planted at Holy Angels Catholic Church, San Angelo, TX
The first sign of being a Dynamic Catholic is Prayer.
We all pray differently in our daily lives, yet the practice that Matthew Kelly (2012) points out that can enhance our own communication with GOD is through our Examination of Conscience*, which we Catholics do before Confession, and we listen for His message.
Here, he goes through the steps of The Prayer Process:
- Gratitude
- Awareness
- Significant Moments
- Peace ✌
- Freedom
- Others
- Our Father
We opened our R.E. class with this simple reminder of the beginning…
*Now here are my Church’s Examination of Conscience:
The First 3 Commandments
- I am the LORD, your GOD; you shall have no other GODs besides Me.
- You shall not take the name of the LORD your GOD in vain.
- Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it Holy.
