Note from the Assistant Managing Editor:
"You say grace before meals. All right. But I say grace before the concert and the opera, and grace before the play and pantomime, and grace before I open a book, and grace before sketching, painting, swimming, fencing, boxing, walking, playing, dancing and grace before I dip the pen in the ink." - G. K. Chesterton
We are in the fifth week of our Lenten fundraiser. We have been asking you for your donations, but today we want you to know how grateful we are for your help — whether you donate a couple dollars or a couple hundred.
We are grateful to God for the blessing of you, our readers and subscribers: you have kept CERC alive and active since the 90s. We literally would not be here without you!
God bless you and reward your generosity. - Meaghen Gonzalez |
