The Catholic Carnival is up!


Evann at Homeschool Goodies in our hostess this week and she has done a terrific job!

Here is a small sampling of the wonderful posts you'll find at Catholic Carnival 217: The Feast of the Annunciation:

God can be found everywhere, if only you are looking. In Our Lady of the Links, Sarah at Behold Your Mother shares how she’s found God in her golf game.

Pope Benedict was recently quoted: “One cannot overcome the problem with the distribution of condoms. On the contrary, they increase the problem.” In Pope Ignites Condom Debate Christine at A Catholic View focuses on the facts behind his statement.

Victor at Vatican 5000 recently toured the Vatican, St. Peter’s Basilica, and the Sistine Chapel. Obviously, any tour of the Vatican is best in person, but this picture tour of St. Peters Square and Plaza is a great alternative.

My entry this week: The suffering of the mother of Christ continues. The recent Notre Dame decision to present Barack Obama with an award and to have him speak at the school’s Commencement ceremony in May has inspired me to create a poll. New Poll on Notre Dame Decision raises this question: “Notre Dame President Fr. Jenkins thinks we should honor Obama for his leadership. What do you think?” Post also contains links to related stories on Catholic Fire and many other Catholic blogs.
