Litany of the Saints on Friday

I have enjoyed Matt Maher’s sweet and simple version of the Litany of the Saints for quite some time now. I think I first saw it mentioned at Jennifer Fulwiler’s blog and it soon after found its way onto my iPod.

Listening to this short prayer never fails to make me smile and reflect on how fortunate we are to have access to such a vast variety of holy examples and real-life support in the Catholic Church.

Listen up and let the kids listen too. Perhaps this simple song will add some prayer and light to your weekend too.

Which Way Is Heaven?

J.R.R. Tolkien’s mystic west was inspired by the legendary voyage of St. Brendan, who sailed on a quest for a Paradise in the midst and mists of the ocean.
