The Founding of Suscipe Domine Forum

[Jayne]

Is there an official date for the starting of this forum?  It must be coming up soon.  Will we be doing anything to celebrate? 

[Penelope]

There is. December 26 will be our first anniversary. Cheers!

Is anyone interested in collecting a spiritual bouquet during the month before the anniversary?  If so, would there be a way to set it up so that it is anonymous?

(Don't worry.  It isn't really Pelagian. )

Absolutely!

I'd be up for that.

I can set up a Google Doc for you to go to and submit what you have done.  It'd be anonymous. 

What acts should be included?

Side note, I looooove Google Docs.

I was hoping for ideas from people who know more about this than I do (which is probably most people) but I'm pretty sure that this is not normally included in a spiritual bouquet.

Advent is coming up, can't the beer drinking be part of the Advent fast?

I was once told by a Trad priest that the Advent and Lenten fasts have nothing to do with liquids, only solid food.

Mine was kind of a side (or snide perhaps) reference to this article from a couple of years ago.

Whoa. "I love beer, so I'm gonna drink it throughout Lent". Makes sense.

I have a feeling that would become penitential very quickly. 

[Jayne]

Anyhow, I was serious about a spiritual bouquet, but I don't how to organize it.  I was hoping for some help or advice, rather than a discussion of beer.

Hmmm...people could promise to have x number of masses said or to pray x number of rosaries.
