Noise - Teresa Tomeo
The most dominant force in the lives of almost all Americans is the media—the Internet, TV, radio, blackberries, ipods. The list goes on and on. Although incredibly intoxicating, the media all too often distracts us from that which is most important, and in many instances, actually fights against our good and noble goals in life. Teresa Tomeo gives a sobering analysis of each of the nine dominant forms of media, and she reveals how they are rapidly dismantling families and destroying lives.This single volume is the complete source of the Bible passages and prayers that form the rich tapestry of our Mass.
Probably the best gift you can give yourself or anyone you love - is the Daily Roman Missal, what an awesome way to grow in your faith over this Easter Season and it's priced to give!The Bible that answers your most important questions - Why hasn't anyone done this before? Here's the whole text of the New American Bible, along with answers to all the most important questions about the Catholic Faith. The answers are all in the Bible. But until now, finding them has meant juggling books and flipping pages. This is the one book that gives you the complete answers in their Scripture context, with more than 800 references to Scripture and the Catechism.

Mother Mary said at Fatima: "My Immaculate Heart will be your refuge and the sure way which will lead you to God." St. Thomas Aquinas said: "The things we love tell us who we are!" With that in mind, I will try to post each day something about Our Blessed Lady, items about the Holy Roman Catholic Church, and public domain Catholic books too! I pray you enjoy my ministry! Below are two albums of pictures that I created: 1. Our grand daughter Adrianna. 2. Tears of Mary!
