Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God.
"Let us strive after purity of heart, for the Holy Spirit dwells in candid and simple minds."

Thanks for the link and for the post below. Ever since visiting Rome a few years back the figure of St Philip has loomed in the back of my mind, even though I know next to nothing about him. I get the feeling now that he wants to shake my life up a bit and would like me to pay more attention to him. Could get interesting. Lydia
"God bless Philip Neri! I'm so glad that he is a saint! It means there is room in the church for everyone! He was "entirely unmonastic and unmedieval; he was the active promoter of vernacular services, frequent and popular preaching, unconventional prayer, and unsystematized, albeit fervent, private devotion." You can be a terrible traditionalist while being a first class Catholic disciple of Jesus Christ."
