My name is Natalie and I blog over at "Here I am the Handmaid of the Lord" To sum up the reason why I started blogging.. I am defiantly I blog reader. For some reason I love reading about the lives of people even though I don't know them. Although I love this, it is really hard to find blogs about young, single, passionately Catholic people. So then I thought "well I fit into that category, I should start blogging again" (by again I mean really start because two posts don't really constitute as a blogger). Well then of course I wondered what the heck would I write about. Again another idea "I love reading about people's everyday normal lives not always about their out of ordinary stuff" And thus it came full circle. I plan on writing blogs hopefully with lots of pictures of just the ordinary stuff I do each day. Things about my life as nursing student, as a student at Franciscan University of Steuvenville, as a young lady striving to follo

It's fall, the leaves have changed color to a fascinating array of oranges, yellows, reds, and browns.....my colors. I'm a fall girl, a rusty, copper-colored hair girl with blue eyes and mid to light skin that burns easily in the summer months. Autumn weather just calls to me for a hike, or a walk, or just a visit to the garden. Besides the cooler weather, the festivities in the fall are amazing. A few weeks after schools start up and the flurry of buying school supplies and the smell of newly sharpened pencils have passed, the days begin to rush by in a furry. All the while the landscape quietly transforms into their fall attire, quietly. Before you know it, Halloween is upon us and the kids are all making their plans with friends about their "trick or treat" adventures. Our family goes to the local pumpkin patch and each family member picks a pumpkin to carve the night before the big day. In the past, I've made Irish soul cakes and salad fo

Peter Robinson: "A majority of Protestants and Catholics alike support our constitutional position within the United Kingdom" Continue reading the main story Related Stories NI leader hails cross-border link Irish minister at DUP conference Irish PM in Enniskillen ceremony Stormont First Minister Peter Robinson has said he believes a majority of Catholics now support Northern Ireland staying within the UK. Speaking at his party's annual conference, the DUP leader said the peace process had helped to secure Northern Ireland's place in the UK. Sinn Fein are pushing for a referendum on keeping the union as Scotland is. Mr Robinson said the result would not be in doubt, and said republicans "should take the hint". He compared Sinn Fein's push for a vote to "turkeys voting for Christmas". Mr Robinson also paid tribute to the Royal Family and said: "Long may you reign over us. God save the Queen." He described the

With just over a month to go before Christmas, the Pope has declared that the presence of animals like cattle and donkeys in traditional Nativity scenes is based on little more than a myth. The inclusion of domestic animals in the Nativity scene may have been inspired by pre-Christian traditions Photo: ALAMY By Nick Squires , Rome 7:32PM GMT 20 Nov 2012 251 Comments As churches and families around the world prepare to dust off their Nativity figures for the festive season, Benedict writes in a new book on Christ that contrary to popular belief, Jesus's birth was not presided over by oxen, asses, camels or indeed any other beasts. "There is no mention of animals in the Gospels," he wrote in the third and last volume of his biography of Jesus Christ, which like the previous two books is expected to become an international best-seller, with an initial print run of a million copies. The inclusion of domestic animals in the

The entire Christian calendar is based on a miscalculation, the Pope has declared, as he claims in a new book that Jesus was born several years earlier than commonly believed. The Pope also weighs in on the debate over Christ's birthplace Photo: Filippo Monteforte/AFP By Nick Squires , Rome 4:02PM GMT 21 Nov 2012 2110 Comments The 'mistake' was made by a sixth century monk known as Dionysius Exiguus or in English Dennis the Small, the 85-year-old pontiff claims in the book 'Jesus of Nazareth: The Infancy Narratives', published on Wednesday. "The calculation of the beginning of our calendar – based on the birth of Jesus – was made by Dionysius Exiguus, who made a mistake in his calculations by several years," the Pope writes in the book, which went on sale around the world with an initial print run of a million copies. "The actual date of Jesus's birth was several years before." The asse
