  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. 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.

I'd be so grateful if some of you could keep my brother on your prayer list at the moment. He's had a really difficult few years- he was made redundant shortly after the birth of his son three years ago and could not get work so retrained as a teacher. He got a job for his induction year but he's finding it really difficult and he's just failed an assessment and if he doesn't improve, he'll fail the whole year.
They've also just been broken into which he discovered coming home with his little son.
He's such a good and gentle man, who loves his family and tries to place everything in the hands of the Lord. Praying is all I can do for him at the moment and I'd really appreciate prayers from others too.
Thanks so much
Cat

Here is one of my best prayers, I will say it for him, tell him to say it too.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that any one who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession, was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother! To thee I come; before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
