Thanks @ChurchLifeND for publishing my thoughts on a topic so dear to my Southern heart. Happy Mardi Gras to all! ⚜️
By embracing a Catholic Carnival, and the Lent immediately following, we can be persons who live the liturgical cycle in fasting as well as feasting. We can live as people who believe that the Incarnation—the Word made flesh—really matters. --Elise Abshire hubs.la/Q01CZhgT0

I’m heartbroken to see the images of devastation coming out of NC right now. I was in Beech Mountain visiting my aunt and uncle only a week ago and drove and walked on these same roads that are now washed away. Grateful my family is safe and praying for all still in danger.

My flight was delayed, and I was a bit frustrated. Come to find out there was a fallen soldier on the flight before us. A good reminder that there are always bigger things happening around us during our inconveniences.

Collisions and all… grad students win against the professors for the second year in a row at the annual kickball game. Each year, the winner adds something to the trophy, and it is looking great!
