Today is a day of joy for the Capuchin Franciscan Order, as one of our own is beatified. Blessed Jacob of Ghazir lived through the first half of the last century and was called "the Lebanese St. Vincent de Paul." His beatification takes place today in Beirut. You can read some more about him

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.
I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.
If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
