Totally Catholic Youth Ministers Lounge

Are you in youth ministry and you've had it with crazed parents? Rollin' your eyes at the pastoral council? Tired of administration work? Love youth? Love the Church? Appalled at parish politics? Looking for some good games? For a creative ways to teach a lesson for Religious Ed? Just need a place to veg out and say "phew! Someone outside of the parish to talk to!"? Grab y'r Starbucks, turn the computer away from the staff's eyes, grab a seat on a donated dusty couch and let it all go.

Cardinal George of Chicago on GMA

I saw a brief clip and I wish I could find it again, but Cardinal George was speaking with one of the folks from Good Morning America and I didn't hear the question, but his repsonse was something like this. I just loved it.

"The Pope's positions were the Church's positions. The Church's positions are Christ's positions. If people disagree with the Pope, they disagree with Christ"... (not sure if he said that last statement...) :"And we are called to live up to these standards. While some find it hard, the Church is patient. Ever calling us on to live these standards".

Couldn't have said it better myself.
