This 4th of July is so weird. In the past, was a big performance day. I’d get booked in the Hamptons for big parties. now, even with 250, I’ve heard NOTHING about the 4th. I’m still available for bookings as an event entertainer. Goddess Columbia would make a great centerpiece at a banquet hall for a 250 event. I have some erte inspired showgirls to accompany Columbia we well.

In this time, so harshly marked by the violence of war and social unrest, many people wonder what the world in which their grandchildren will grow up will be like. I urge you, dear #GrandparentsAndElderlyPeople, to join me in praying earnestly that peace may soon come to the whole world. vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/e…

“What Our Lord left us, what the Apostles received from Him, and what His True Church has been protecting down through the centuries, is belief in one Lord — Whose standards and expectations do not change from denomination to denomination, era to era, culture to culture; one Faith — which can be known by hearing and humbly obeying those who possess authority to teach in Christ’s name; and one Baptism — the outward sign by which men are visibly incorporated into one visible, unified body of true followers of Christ.” catholicism.org/the-meaning-… via @SBC_Catholic

Friend had a Jesuit at Mass this weekend making fun of Dominicans for *checks notes* “Being smart and always reading books.” St. Ignatius, come and get your boy.

Having become our brother, the Son of God looks at the people; He looks at humanity and sees the oppression that burdens and the violence that causes strength to fade. He sees the wounds of war and the emptiness of consumerism. He sees faces reduced to masks, families torn apart by evil, and young people misled by false ideals. Jesus sees and loves. He loves and suffers for and with us: His compassion expresses not only fraternal closeness, but His desire to redeem. #GospelOfToday (Mt 9:36 – 10:8)

St. Anthony is known for helping people find lost items—but perhaps his greatest miracle is helping to find lost souls. Who are you praying for to return to the Catholic Faith? Leave their first name (or initials) below, and let's pray together through the powerful intercession of St. Anthony of Padua. "Saint Anthony, finder of lost souls, pray for us." youtu.be/e4-E4BEv6Ls

🐴✝️ What can a donkey teach us about the Holy Eucharist? One of the most famous miracles of St. Anthony of Padua tells of a starving donkey that was presented with a bale of fresh hay after three days without food. Yet when St. Anthony raised the Blessed Sacrament and commanded the animal to adore its Creator, the donkey turned away from the hay and knelt before Our Lord in the Holy Eucharist. A beast of burden recognized what many men refuse to see. The lesson is timeless: What do we hunger for most? The world offers pleasure, wealth, power, and endless distractions, yet the human heart remains restless until it rests in God. Only Christ can satisfy the deepest hunger of the soul. As St. Ignatius of Antioch wrote: "I hunger for the Bread of God, which is the Flesh of Jesus Christ." May we learn from St. Anthony's donkey and hunger above all for Our Eucharistic Lord. 🙏 Have you ever heard this miracle before? What is your favorite story about St. Anthony of Padua? youtu.be/9q2TqH3Ith0
