Today is the feast of St. John Neumann. The Bad Catholics Guide to Good Living suggests having cheesesteaks in honor of Philadelphia where his body lies in glass as the base of an altar. Today is Friday, so perhaps you could defer that delicacy until tomorrow.

I attribute Fritz’s healing to his intercession, so I’m saying some extra prayers of thanksgiving today. Here’s another prayer to him for Catholic schools – to include homeschools, I’m sure.

Saint John Neumann, you helped organize Catholic education in the United States. Please watch over all Catholic schools and help them be a model of Christianity in their actions as well as their words. Amen
