The Biblical roots of World Mission Sunday
Many Catholics think of World Mission Sunday as a modern Church initiative. In one sense, this is true: this Oct. 18, we are celebrating it for the 100th time.
The most important collection of the year?
American Catholics are accustomed to second collections at Mass on Sunday mornings. Many of us often do not really know precisely what the money we contribute to these collections is going to be used for. If the Church endorses it, and the basket is passed, we try to give something. But if we knew more about the collection, its connection to our faith, and its impact, we might want to give more generously.

‘For new readers with open minds, a treat is in store’
Review of David Dabydeen’s “Sweet Li Jie” By Dr Michael Mitchell Readers coming to David Dabydeen’s magnificent new novel, “Sweet Li Jie”, after having seen only online summaries or the publisher’s blurb, may well share the puzzled reaction of at least one reviewer; for it is not a naturalistic account of Chinese emigration to the Caribbean in the nineteenth century, as might have been written by, say, an Amitav Ghosh.
Kodax Strophes / Martyn Bates – Christ In The House Of Martha & Mary - God Is In The TV
I love the fact that music exists as a method to help someone lose themselves within it or to create and channel things like love, rage, nihilism and nostalgia to produce sounds that could live on forever. I especially love the fact that Martyn Bates is still out there in the shadows creating music, by himself or with a variety of others, that makes me feel like it’s just for me.

The 5 S Method for being the church
By Pastor Michael Mitchell - Your pastor speaks Romans 12: 1-2 “And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.
Want To Know What’s Going On in Our Economy? Talk to Workers.
The Biden administration has created more jobs in the first term of a presidency than any other presidency in American history—and with just three weeks to go before the midterm elections, his administration has not been shy about touting these unprecedented job numbers.

Easter is over, now what?
By Pastor Michael Mitchell - Your pastor speaks Easter has come and gone, once again. This year, many of us were in a familiar place, whereas last year the church was closed during this season. Some churches are still closed for worship. We came into this season with a newness, with a refreshing that was needed. Now that this season is over, what do we do? My hope and prayer is that we continue with this excitement and this energy and we become the church that we were supposed to be all along.

Mental health in football
It’s a hot topic, so what’s it like in the world’s biggest sport? We’re all very aware of what mental health is, of the different types and how it can affect us and others. This week I’m looking at how we treat footballers, how their mental health can be affected and whether we really are as aware as we think we are. Footballers are forever put in this bracket of being lucky, Premier League footballers earn tens of thousands a week at a minimum and appear to have an incredibly enviable lifestyle.

The Lehigh men’s lacrosse team won back-to-back Patriot League titles in 2012 and 2013, a feat that had never been done before in program history. Before 2012, the Mountain Hawks had never won a Patriot League Championship. In 2008, Kevin Cassese was hired as the head coach. Throughout those four years, he helped build the program into a winning team. When Cassese took over in 2008, he said Lehigh needed to have an overall commitment to being tougher, getting bigger and working more cohesively.
Let’s tap the brakes on the convenient fiction that what we pastors do on the internet is ‘church’
This column is part of our ongoing opinion commentary on faith, called Living Our Faith. Find this week’s reader question and get weekly roundups of the project in your email inbox by signing up for the Living Our Faith newsletter. I’ve seen more than one column in The Dallas Morning News extolling the virtues of “online church.” For the most part, people should be commended for demonstrating concern for others, and for being innovative enough to still bring the message through a different medium.
A year in advance, women's rowing looks to 2021

Brandon Paetzell dominates on wrestling mat
Junior Brandon Paetzell was only 9 years old when he started wrestling.

My cousins were playing around with me one day, trying to hold me down. They said ‘You gotta sign this kid up. He’s a fighter.’” Paetzell recalls attending multiple NCAA wrestling tournaments at a young age with his father.

Fourth Circuit Rules that Website’s Unauthorized Posting of Stock Photograph Was Not ‘Fair Use’
The Intellectual Property Strategist Copyrights Intellectual Property Litigation The decision in Brammer v.

As the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit recently noted, “the Internet has made copying as easy as a few clicks of a button,” and users frequently copy photographs for business or social purposes.

Do not be afraid … There is enough … You are enough
We have all been there; making a New Year’s resolution is nothing new. For as long as any of us can remember we have always had a way of making a new start, or fresh changes to our lives in the coming of a new year. Being a follower of Christ, this often times involves our relationship with God and our connection to Him. I pray that these words find you looking for something new, and a heart that is able to accept the changes necessary.

The Queue: So now what?
A good portion of the Overwatch voice actors were at Blizzard yesterday during my visit, which — shocker! — was pretty cool.

That said, BlizzCon and my yearly vacation are now over, and winter is going to be here soon. In other words, it’s all downhill until next October. Yay.
