minorities in the parish especially on the Church’s teachings
on life and morality?

our Church are becoming more and more Hispanic. That is simply
the reality. What we do with that reality, however, is up to

The Kitchen Madonna:
Patroness of The
Catholic View for Women
Mary was not only Jesus' Mother, but also a housewife.
Her utensils are earthly and heavenly symbols. The key
represents the safety in the house and also the way
into heaven. The kettle symbolizes nourishment for
body and soul. The broom represents cleanliness in the
home and in thoughts and deeds.

Extreme Makeover
by Teresa Tomeo
Teresa Tomeo pulls together the latest research on
social behavior and trends to demonstrate that women
are harming themselves and their chances for true
happiness by adopting the thoroughly modern, sexually
liberated lifestyle portrayed in magazines and movies.
Packed with not only persuasive statistics but also
powerful personal testimonies, Extreme Makeover shows
that it is not the slogans of the sexual revolution
and the women’s liberation movement that free and
dignify women, but the beautiful teachings of the
Catholic Church. |
