  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I am so happy. I was with my Pentecostal grandma and Baptist mom, and guess where we ended up today??










A Catholic store!!!! It had SO much stuff. I had begged my mom to bring me, so she did. I ended up buying a book called The Catholic Warrior by Robert Abel, a coin with St. Francis on it, a coin with St. Michael on it, three prayer cards, and three bookmarks!!! When I get more money mom said she'll bring me back and I may get a Douay Rheims (it had tons of Bible versions, Catholic all 2!!!) and a new rosary maybe. I loved it!! Praise the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit!

What wonderful news and such enthusiastism(sp?). The Lord certainly does move in mysterious ways. God draws straight with crooked lines - and leads Pentecostal and Baptist souls with your inspiration to a Catholic store.... Hallelujah and Praise the Lord.

I grew up Pentecostal, so there is hope always, hope.

God's Peace,

D'Ann
