Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

You may remember when we started a websitedesigned to help keep track of all the many wonderful ideas on Catholic blogs.

I've been uploading some fantastic ideas for Lent which I thought to direct you to, I'd love to know of others I have missed, if you'd like to share.

Erin - this is just amazing and such a big help. Now to figure out how to put it as a permanent item on my sidebar - anyone have a widget or button idea?

Thank you!

Erin - this is truly amazing!!! Thank you!!! I wonder...could we put together a little graphic for you (I say we...I don't have a clue how this is done!) for Faith Filled Days and then we could use that little graphic on our sidebars with a link back to Faith Filled Days. This gets this amazing resource out there! What do you think of that, Erin?

Wow, I am overwhelmed with your kind words. They mean the world to me, you have NO idea!!

I have wondered if it was worthwhile as I was lucky to have 10 visits in a week, but then a motivating factor was I found it very useful myself.
Do you ladies have any ideas of the power of this board? After posting here I received 328 hits compared to a usual 2 a day!!!

Marilyn and Jennifer; Great minds do indeed think alike! After seeing Marissa's widget I realised that it was possible to make them yourself. I managed to do so for my blogs but am having trouble with my websites, I think it may be to do with the feeds. I was trying with widgetbox and they have not responded to my question. I would LOVE help, please feel free. While we are talking about help I would really like to make my main page more visual but struggling for ideas and not too sure whether I can put pictures in textboxes on google sites. I don't want too much as I am conscious of people's load up time if they are on dial up, but still want something with a bit more appeal. Any suggestions?

Please don't forget to direct me to any great blogs I have missed.

Erin - I am so excited about the site as I mentioned above. So nice to know that when I am tired and postpartum (or tired and pregnant!) there is a one stop shop for liturgical year planning. I sent you an email. My dd knows how to do those widgety/buttony things - but she is away for the day - I am sure someone here knows though.

Have a blessed Lenten season.

Erin,
It looks fabulous! You have done a great job! Please let us know when you have a graphic to link back to the website. Maybe Jessica could help with that? I think she made the graphic for Catholic Cuisine.

Actually, it was Regina that made the From Thy Bounty widgit for Catholic Cuisine... I've never made one before, though it isn't too hard to link a photo/graphic to a website... Is that pretty much the same thing? I'll call Regina, ask her a few questions, and see what I can do.   

You've done an amazing job with the site Erin! I love it!!

God Bless,
