Friday, August 7, 2020 – Blessed First Friday! Well, this brings us to the last of our Captain’s Logs (for now). I still need to do one for the monthly devotionals, but given that I currently only have three months (June – August) done, it doesn’t really make sense to do a whole captain’s log Read More

Wednesday, June 24, 2020 – 100 days!? I feel like I should mark this with a big cake or something, kind of like how TV shows celebrate their 100th episode with a weird recap show.

Day 24 – The Flusches are Crazy about Maundy Thursday
Thursday, April 9, 2020 – Weird fact: I…LOVE…MAUNDY THURSDAY! I love that it is the start of the Triduum, which by the way is #1 on the Table of Liturgical Days. I love that Christ gave us the Eucharist and the Priesthood on this day. Andrew and I love Holy Thursday so much we bought Read More
