Folks, I got off all that social media nonsense a while ago. Sorry but I'm not on Twitbook, Facepalm, YouHu, WingWang or any of the others. Maybe an event will happen to make me change my mind like Peter and Paul coming down with flaming swords and commanding it be so. Until then, read the blog and if you feel a comment is in order or you feel like sharing a tip or suggestion for a topic, email me at harvey@harveymillican.com.

Lay Papal Electors? LOLZ
The Remnant is reporting this.
And who would be these pay electors? Whoopi Goldberg? Bono? I’d expect nothing less from the fabulously tacky, stuck-in-the-70’s antipope.
St. Louis Catholic has it right, friends. If the right folks don’t step up soon, it won’t really matter.
As Frank says, “Pray for the Church.”
SHARE! It's so easy.
Memento Mori
For your edification/meditation:
Pray for the dead!
Stay confessed and do penance in this life!
And if this image of a TLM requiem Mass doesn’t move you to those sentiments, there may not be anything that can.
SHARE! It's so easy.

Well That Was Different
I went to my niece’s wedding this afternoon.
Byzantine.
Prayers for the new family, please.

The Dead
I am currently traveling. My family and I arrived in the Fatherland yesterday (New Jersey) for the wedding of one of my nieces. It was All Saints Day. The rest of the gang made it to the early Mass at home before our flight. Yours truly still had some packing to do and so I went to a sung Mass at the ICK oratory I usually attend when I am home. It was, as it always is, magnificent. Laudetur Jesus Christus!
Which brings us to today. November 2nd. All Souls Day.
As I am “back home” for the next few days, I will have the opportunity not only to attend Masses for the dead but to visit the old family plot at the cemetery.
There isn’t much more I can add to this other than the exhortation to pray always for the souls in purgatory. In God’s infinite Mercy you and I may be among them one day.
Offer prayers, sufferings, and good works for the souls of the faithful departed this month and always.
Here is a link to a set of daily prayers for the dead that I use. But even the simply “Eternal rest grant unto them” prayer we were all taught growing up is perfectly acceptable. Make the sign of the cross when you pass a cemetery. Pray for them!
SHARE! It's so easy.

Spooky
For Halloween I decided to hold a conclave, elect myself sovereign pontiff, and pretend to be pope.
What? If Jorge can do it, why can’t I?
SHARE! It's so easy.
St. Lawrence Came Through
As promised, here’s the brisket update.
In just 18 short hours, we went from this:
To this:
As a reminder, advent is coming.
Thank you, St. Lawrence!
