No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Last night my parish was selling a CD that they CYO youth had made in order to make money to go to the Stuebenville Conference.

They made a CD of the Stations of the Cross. I didn't have the money to buy it right then, but I plan to.

I think this would be a fabulous idea for CYO's to do for any type of fundraising, or just as a project.

Although I do want to suggest/warn about a few things:

*Make sure everyone in the class is involved in some way, it's really easy for the more active members of CYO to leave behind the others (even unintentionally)

*Keep in mind that students are at different levels in their formation and they might know little to nothing about the Stations of the Cross. Even if they did get a pamphlet about it or it was covered in class for a few minutes one day. There could be a sort of 'primer-class' for people to ask the elementary questions. And then others can share what insites and growing they have down by doing this devotion.
