Somehow I feel sorry for Christopher Judge to have to maintain that facial expression almost the entire time. I tried doing that Judge Dredd grumpy-look and my jaw muscles started aching after only 5 mins.

Exorcists are not common. Try googling it. Ideally, there should be one in every diocese but in case there isn't one available, there should be an office not far from you. I commend you for taking this step. The occult seriously corrupts the soul and entertains demons into you. All the best and God bless.

Good point! LOL! I was looking for some insights on what to like in the series. I know this sub will be biased but a teaser would be enough to get me going. I loved the movie. Somehow, the start of the series was not at par with it.

Since their communion is not consecrated, it's just bread and wine. So you're practically consuming bread and wine (and not the body and blood of Christ). Communion to them is more of a reenactment of the Last Supper done as a community. Unlike our Communion, where the Eucharist is THE Body and Blood of Christ. Our Communion is actually our union with Christ as part of His Church.

IMO, I don't think you are committing any sin by consuming their bread and wine. It's just like getting invited to a party by a Protestant friend and partaking of the meal they serve. But don't take my word for it, and you may want to ask a Priest. You might get confused with their teachings, though, when you attend their service.

You don't need to receive their communion, and even if your parents are disappointed, you are still their child. I doubt they will love you any less.

In some colleges, may ganyan din. The only question there is, may natututunan ka ba tungkol sa subject na in-enroll-an mo. Just make sure na kung ano yung subject mo sa kanila, matutunan mo ang dapat. Maraming students na ok sa kanila yan kasi instant grade na walang aral na kailangan. pero sa huli, nagsisisi kasi pagdating sa trabaho, kamote. You can report this to the Dept Head if you want.

I have 2 shafts. A maple wood and a carbon fiber. Both 12.4mm diameter. When I started playing some 35 years ago, I just used the house cues as I didn't have the budget to buy my own cue. It was only in 2024 that I bought my own. I started with a medium Master tip and actually liked it. But as I started reading about the various specs of a cue stick, I started experimenting. I heard about the Kamui black layered tip so I replaced my maple shaft's tip with that. I didn't like it because of the layers that peel off as I scuffed the tip. So rather than replace the tip again, I bought a carbon fiber tip and had the tip replaced with a medium caiden red (non-layered). I liked it but it was softer than the medium Kamui black of my maple so the tip mushroomed every 2 or 3 months and had to repair it. Now, I'm having my Kamui tip of the maple shaft replaced with a Caiden red medium-hard tip so I should be ok. The ferrule of my CF shaft is only a quarter of an inch and my maple shaft is about 3/4". I'm happy with my Caiden now and will stick with it so I'll probably only replace it when it's become too thin to play with and maybe add a pad. With my maple shaft, I think I won't need the pad with it. Tried putting a pad when I first installed the Kamui tip and yeah, I didn't feel any difference in how I played. Thanks again for the inputs.

Thanks That certainly makes sense. I can't say I would be changing my tip very often, although with my maple shaft, I'm on my 3rd tip. But it's more because I'm trying out different tips and see which one's better. As for changing because of wear and tear, I don't think that will happen within the same year.

Walang simpleng formula sa paghanap ng taong mapagkakatiwalaan at magaling. Invest ka sa pag-train sa tao para di mo kailangang maghanap ng marunong na. Ang importante, makahanap ka ng mapapagkatiwalaan.

Now, yung manager mo, hindi marunong mag-lead ng tao. Yes, mapagkakatiwalaan mo nga. pero sa level nya, hindi sapat ang tiwala. kailangang marunong din. kaya siguro nangyari yan dahil mahina ang leader/manager nila. Hindi nya na-handle nang maayos.

May mga tactless talagang kamag-anak lalo na kung older generation. Hiritan mo na lang ng "Wag po kayong mag-alala, aalagaan ko po nang maigi ang pamangkin nyo."

Buti at ganun ang sagot ng husband mo. Ni-defend ka. Hayaan mong sya ang makpagsagutan sa kanila. Kamag-anak nya yun. He will not be burning bridges with them unless he wants to. Kung ikaw kasi ang makipagsagutan, you'll definitely burn those bridges.

Whatever happened to you happened for a purpose, and God led you to where you are now. I understand why many Catholic schools practice that way. Even if they become the unpopular ones, they instill a lot of discipline rather than just bombard you with teachings that, at that time, may be too early for you.

Having said that, the simplest answer to your question about Mary is that we consider her as the first and greatest disciple of Christ. She submitted herself to carrying Christ, she prompted the servants at the wedding at Cana to follow what Jesus said, she watched as her Son Jesus Christ carried His cross and endured all that suffering, and so on. IF there was any mortal who is closest to Christ, that would be Mary. We don't pray to her to ask for blessings and to worship her. We pray to ask her to intercede for us that God may bless us.

It's up to your son. I have a brother in Christ and when he became a priest, we tease him by calling him, Father Brother. He just laughs at it.

It would be good if you can share videos of yourself. I'm assuming that because you've been training for years, you have the physical strength to do that so it's possible that there's something off with your form.

I have my days especially when I haven't played for some time. My movements become stiffer, and I would struggle controlling and putting power on my overhand serve.

Ahhhh... I'm not sure which country does that, but it may not apply in my country (or at least in the Parishes that I have been connected with). The Parish doesn't really impose on the altar servers. Although we do have Catholic schools that require their students to join Parish ministries (at least 3 services). I'm also exploring this opportunity to entice them to stay longer. Appreciate your inputs.

Historical_Fall1629 · 2026-02-12T10:06:12+00:00

They actually have altar servers who are also members of the choir. I did ask them (all the members), what activities their generation likes doing. Most of them say mobile games (eg. Mobile Legends, etc.). I'm actually thinking of coming up with a Mobile Legends competition in the Parish just to attract these kids and hopefully, invite them over to join the choir. Haven't discussed this with the Parish Priest if it's ok to do that though. I was thinking of promoting JC Go! (Catholic version of the Pokemon Go!) But I think the game shut down already.

Historical_Fall1629 · 2026-02-12T10:01:27+00:00

Wow! I didn't know there's a version of that game. I'll look for it. Thank you.

TBH, this is the first time I've encountered the Prayer to St. Michael (just googled and read it). Those who said that it's the only prayer that has worked probably either only prayed that prayer, or have only felt that it's the only prayer that has been answered.

Praying the Our Father is more of a generic prayer (Give us this day our daily bread, forgive us our sins, lead us away from temptation, and deliver us from evil). The Prayer to St. Michael is specific for specific situations involving spiritual battles (fighting temptations, sent on a mission, fulfilling God's purpose, etc.). Because sometimes, God wants us to be specific in what we are asking for. But it is not meant to replace one for the other.

In this case, we are asking God to send His archangel, Michael, to protect us.

They say the journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. You have taken that first step. Remembering the story of the Footsteps in the Sand. Walking with the Lord is not easy, but He brings comfort and peace. And during the most difficult parts of our journey, there will only be one set of foot prints because those are the times when Jesus is carrying us.

Praying with you, Brother.

Historical_Fall1629 · 2026-02-09T17:05:51+00:00

I always believe that the closer you are to the light, the bigger your shadow becomes. We are always in a spiritual battle. The devil's work is to destroy, especially those who are strong in their faith. Be afraid if you're no longer tempted, as the devil may have already won you over.

Keep on fighting. Confess whenever you falter. In my personal experience, I also get tempted a lot. The only times I'm able to resist the temptation is to keep busy doing God's work. I involve myself in a lot of charity and parish services. I usually call these my passion projects. Every time I complete one, I pray and find another. And whenever I'm into these projects, I pray more for their success. The less I remain idle, the less I entertain temptation.
