Confirmation "God daughter" Holy Death, Vocation, Purity, and a few more that are escaping my
mind at the moment. Guardian Angel prayer, Rosary, St. Michael prayer, the Angelus and the St.
Gertrude prayer for the dead.

My rosary and veil for Mass. My missal is usually in my work bag so a good portion of the time
I have that with me. I have a little crucifix in my car too. That's probably it, unless you count my
scapular and Marian medal. I also keep a bottle of Holy Water in my car.

Well... I don't listen to singers and bands much since I prefer movie soundtracks. :D
I do like Clamavi de Profundis
He does a lot of Hobbit/LOTR songs which puts him high up on my score. :D I'm not sure if he
counts because I don't know for sure if he's Catholic. But judging by the fact that his online name
is Clamavi de Profundis and he does some Latin songs, I just guessed. If not Andrea Bochelli.
Is he Catholic? Sorry, I don't really know my singers.

At the moment I would have to say Ven. Anne Catherine Emmerich. I'm reading "The Life of

I've been meaning to do this tag for a while, since I saw it on Sarah's blog. I loved learning more about you, Charlotte :)
ReplyDeleteClamavi de Profundis is a actually a family of singers, and yes, they are Catholic!
I love Anne Catherine Emmerich as well. The book about her visions about the Blessed Virgin is also really good, if you haven't read it :)
Awesome post!
Catherine <3
You should! Thank you Catherine. :)
DeleteThat makes it even better. Catholic Family Singers that sing Latin and LoTR songs. They sound like kindred spirits. :D
I haven't read her book about the visions of the Blessed Virgin, yet. But I have heard about it. I still need to get through three volumes of the Life of Christ and read the Glories of the Martyrs and Introduction to the Devout Life, which were all on my list. :D
This was such a fun post!
ReplyDeleteThank you Frannie. I've been looking at your blog too. I like it. :)
Deleteoh thanks so much! I've been having fun trying out blogging :)
DeleteHello Charlotte! These were great answers! Is that your adoration chapel? Its beautiful! I love The Reluctant Saint movie as well. My family and I just watched it for his feast day. Thanks for answering. God bless you and keep you!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sarah. I have been to that adoration chapel. Some of my family does adoration there and I work at the school next to it. But I usually do adoration at my Church when they have it there. The Parishes are connected though. My family watched the Reluctant Saint for his Feast day too, but I was working, so I missed it. :(
DeleteGod Bless you too.
