Ad majoram Dei gloriam
"For he that singeth praise, not only praiseth, but only praiseth with gladness: he that singeth praise, not only singeth, but also loveth him of whom he singeth. In praise, there is the speaking forth of one confessing; in singing, the affection of one loving."
(St. Augustine, Commentary on Psalm 73, 1)

“Liturgical action is given a more noble form when sacred rites are solemnized in song, with the assistance of sacred ministers and the active participation of the people.... Choirs must be diligently promoted, but bishops and other pastors must ensure that, whenever the sacred action is to be celebrated with song, the whole body of the faithful may be able to contribute that active participation which is rightfully theirs.... Gregorian chant, other things being equal, should be given pride of place in liturgical services. But other kinds of sacred music, especially polyphony, are by no means excluded.... Religious singing by the people is to be skillfully fostered, so that in devotions and sacred exercises, as also during liturgical services, the voices of the faithful may ring out”
(Constitution on the Liturgy, 112-118).

Heterodox Catholic
Definition: A Catholic who espouses and/or believes any idea, thought, dogma, practice, principle or lifestyle that is in conflict with orthodox Catholic faith. Examples: "Cafeteria" Catholics, "feel-good" Catholics, and those who deny Church teaching on sex, contraception, abortion, the Eucharist, confession, and homosexuality, etc. Are YOU a heterodox Catholic???

TJT1192, money placed in that envelope (that we receive from our parish) is sent to a central location earmarked for the Catholic Campaign for Human Development. It is a pool of money that gets given to organizations in need. HOWEVER, there are organizations that have policies that are against Catholic teaching (check the website and the Catechism of the Catholic Church). I am all for giving. My family takes charity seriously. I also firmly believe that organizations that get our money should not be those that have policies that support and even encourage those things that the Church (begun by Christ) teaches against! In order to know more, one must visit the website and also learn more about what the Church teaches.
