Padre Peregrino

 


I first discovered Father Nix’s website when I was trying to figure out how to use my missal. Since then, his blog and podcast has been a valuable resource to me regarding questions related to the faith. 


He had an insightful article regarding the TV series, The Chosen. I shared it with my family when we were wondering whether to watch it or not. We then listened to his podcasts on the Catechism of Pope St Pius X. Now we are following along on his new catechism series based on the Roman Catechism of the Council of Trent.


After listening to Father Nix’s podcast for some time now, I can tell you that he is to the point, thoughtful, and is truly concerned with the salvation of souls. I think that’s a good thing because since the pandemic, it’s been hard trying to understand what some people are saying regarding the faith. I have been reminded and have learned a lot regarding the faith from Father Nix. These days, it's easy to wander away from the faith. I feel like we're being pulled in so many directions. For me, Father Nix provides a link to the faith that I grew up with. I don't always agree with everything that Father Nix mentions at times, but for the most part, we're on the same page and can see where he's coming from.  


If you’ve never heard of Padre Peregrino, his podcast is worth a listen.

Of all the -isms ...

  Of all the -isms in our culture today, this one is often ignored and up there with the most nefarious. I’m talking about nepotism. This is because it is so stealthy. It is not obvious. You never know who is related to whom, either by blood or by marriage.  Unfortunately, you don’t get to choose who your family are. The treachery within family is stuff of legends and timeless novels. At the same time, the benefits of some families just keep on giving, bootstraps not needed at all, just look for the red carpet treatment. When it comes to nepotism, there are tell-tale signs over time, emphasis on time. There are certain people who seem to get away with everything. Rules for you but not for them. Some of these people aren’t qualified for the job, and yet they have been promoted countless times to the top just like that. Then there are some people who haven't done much and yet they’re bestowed with awards and recognitions nonstop just for showing up. Meanwhile, the rest of us are...

Total Solar Eclipse 2024

  Last month we were able to watch the total solar eclipse. We originally had other plans to see it elsewhere, but the eclipse madness was no joke. Everything and everywhere was fully booked very far in advance. At the end of the day, as long as you’re in the path of totality, you’re good to go along with your protective glasses. I didn’t have high hopes for it, as leading up to the day, the forecast was not good. Several weathermen mentioned that they wished they were wrong. It turned out that they were wrong, and we were able to see the total solar eclipse. The weathermen themselves were glad that they were wrong as well.  It was everything that I had hoped for and then some. It was simply awesome, and I can see why people chase after it all over the world. It was a once in a lifetime event for me, and I’m so glad that I was able to see it and share this moment with my family.
