     | 2,705 views

    St. Thomas of Canterbury lived a life in service to God, a service in love and defense of His Church and people.

    St. Thomas of Canterbury Mass (December 29) Thirteen Days of Christmas There is no doubt what happened on December 29, 1170, but what one thinks of it depends very much on a connection to the people and places of twelfth century England.

    It isn't irrelevant. It isn't just pageantry. It's a model for the commissioning of every leader.

    Yesterday, I imagine that most of us were glued to our televisions from about 11 to 1 watching King Charles' and Queen Camilla’s coronation. For most of us, this was the first time in our lifetimes that we’d witnessed such an event. It was an extraordinary spectacle. What did you think of it? ...read more

    St. Thomas Becket 2012 December 29–in the Christmas Octave We come to the end of a year that many in the Church see as an overall catastrophe.

    Jesus Christ was the perfect sacrifice, because: 1. He was one of us. 2. He was sinless. 3. He was deathless.
