Saints of Christian Unity

Fr Anthony Ho has an article for Pax Sinaica (scroll down for the English version) in which he looks at St Francis de Sales and Blessed Marie Gabriella (right). Concerning St Francis de Sales, Fr Ho makes this observation:
St. Francis won the heart of the people gradually with his patience and kindness. The parents would not come to St. Francis, so he came to their children and played with them. When the parents saw how kind he was as he played with their children, they started to talk to him.

probably not for publication......but you may be amused to find that Catholics for a Changing Church seem to be linking to your blog. If you go to their links page and then click on what they think (presumably) is a link to www.marriedpriests-ew.org: Married Priests you end up on your blog!

I found trawling through the CCC rubbish rather depressing until I came across their error.

At the post Married priests petition and celibacy counter-text in fact. That is very funny: thank you for passing it on.
