Septuagesima Sunday: What Is It, Anyways?

Mother Miriam Live - January 25, 2023 What is Septuagesima and how should we be preparing for it? Mother's thoughts on Fiducia Supplicans and the blessing of same-sex couples Why do we use Rosary beads? What can I do to lift myself up and be more motivated, more positive, and feel more healthy?

Would me going back mean that I have to worship Mary and the saints? What would your advice be to someone discerning a possible career change? How can I overcome the fear of uncertainty? What does it mean to be a "modernist?" Do we know definitively how the text of sacred scripture was transferred from one generation to the next? How do we know for sure that bits and pieces were not lost along the way?

Exodus Chapter Nine and God’s Message at Mount Sinai

Mother Miriam Live - December 20, 2023 Exodus Chapter 9 and God's message at Mount Sinai  What is your favorite type of Christmas cookie, your favorite Christmas song or hymn, and your favorite Christmas movie? What is your typical Christmas day meal with the sisters? Do you think you'll miss the snow this year now that you're down in Texas? Can you explain what a Benediction is used for and why some parishes seem to prefer it often, when others don't do it at all? Someone once asked me if I was a Catholic or a Christian. When I said that I was both, since Catholics are Christians, he became confused. He seemed to equate the term Christian with Protestants or non-Catholic Christians. Where did this idea come from, and how could anyone possibly think that Catholics are not Christian? Is it ok to donate to a charity that does great humanitarian work but at the same time advocates Protestantism? Is it acceptable to travel on Sundays?
