Sharing News From Everywhere, But Mostly From My Inbox:

My Inbox is your Inbox:

Sue Elvis is giving away three copies (e-reader versions) of A Little Way of Homeschooling: Thirteen Families Discover Catholic Unschooling.  If you don't have an e-reader, don't sweat it -- did you know you can download the Kindle app for your Mac or PC? It's free. I had a lot of free Kindle books long before I got a Kindle (which I now own only thanks to my mom's generosity ... sometimes when she upgrades to something new, I reap the benefits.)

Winners will be drawn on October 1st.

~~~~~~~~~~

Sally Thomas is the best. She just is. Go take a look at her site, Abandon Hopefully: Catholic Humanities-Centered Homeschooling (for parents of college-bound high-schoolers and others).

Holy acting, Batman! It's an acting studio whose mission is training artists to "become excellent actors and powerful couriers of truth and beauty through media to the world." Holy Wood Acting Studios sounds intriguing -- an endeavor to cultivate and nourish the the vision Pope John Paul II spoke of in his Letter to Artists.

~~~~~~~~~~

Little Sisters of the Poor asked for help in spreading the word about their Vocation Discernment Day.

~~~~~~~~~~

A Lay Day of Fasting for Priests in October -- more information can be found here.

Thanks for posting about the giveaway Karen; I hope your readers will go enter! The giveaway is in conjunction with a novena to St. Therese, so if you don't win the e-book (though you just might!), you are still sure to win showers of roses from good St. Therese. See you at Sue's place!

with love,
Suzie
