As we all know, everything that we hold dear is under attack, and our voices are being silenced. Now, more than ever, it's critical that faithful Catholics unite to pray, serve the community, and take action to protect life, our faith, and our families.

From todays readings. A distinction of receiving the Holy Spirit at baptism and confirmation.

A few verses on Receiving the Holy Spirit…

1. Baptism

Catholic Study Bible
38 And Peter said to them, " Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 2:38 RSV-CE

2. Confirmation

Catholic Study Bible
16 for the Spirit had not yet fallen on any of them, but they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Acts 8:16 RSV-CE

8:16 not yet fallen: A distinction is made in Acts between Baptism, which confers the Spirit in an invisible way (2:38), and the laying on of hands, which calls down the Spirit to manifest his presence in a visible and charismatic way (19:6).

Please call Jake Hoffman RIGHT NOW and tell him to vote No on HB2536! He thinks it can be fixed, but it's irredeemably flawed. The budget is done, tell him to go home.

I wish people would put their hands together in the prayer posture when they are asking us to pray to the Lord or the Our Father instead of trying to imitate the Priest in the orans position.

It lacks true understanding of the purpose of Priests orans position and it lacks unity how the Deacon and the alter servers have their hands in the correct prayer posture.
