Wed, 18 November 2009 ![]() This week on Catholic Moments, we welcome special guests Kim and Jason Kotecki. Kim, a former Kindergarten teacher and Jason, a professional cartoonist fight "Adultitis" and make it their mission in life to help people to use strategies from childhood to create lives with less stress and more fun. Their books include There's An Adult In My Soup and you can visit them at www.Kimand Jason.com. Please join me in supporting our good friends Greg and Jennifer Willits and their Rosary Army Apostolate by supporting this year's Rosary Army Giving Campaign. Are you going to be taken up in the Rapture? Deacon Tom invites you to live in the NOW of the Eucharist rather than worrying about the End Times. This week’s Mary Moment is a reflection on the wedding at Cana as Sarah Reinhard taps into Mary’s title Mother of Divine Providence. You can read more of Sarah’s reflections on this title, including the history, at her column at Today’s Catholic Woman. Links for this Episode:

Thu, 5 November 2009 ![]() Our guests this week, Steve and Joni Abdalla, are the Catholic parents of three daughters and the founders of Wee Believers™, an authentically Catholic toy company based in Indianapolis. The inaugural product of Wee Believers is the "My Mass Kit", a great tool for faith formation for little ones. During this conversation, we discuss the mission and history of Wee Believers, as well as the "leap of faith" taken by the Abdalla family to share their love of faith with others. What is it like at your parish before liturgy starts? Is it a quiet, sacred church? Or is it noisy and neighborly? Deacon Tom discusses this by sharing about a recent Saturday evening at his parish in Arizona. Do you want a Mary Vitamin in your inbox? Sarah Reinhard shares a quote from a recent Mary Vitamin and encourages you to sign up to receive your own. This episode of Catholic Moments is sponsored by CatholicMatch.com, the Leading Catholic Singles Community.
