		<description><![CDATA[I wrote the story of the martyr Father Coyle a couple of years ago. You can read it here. Catholic Culture: In 1921, the rector of the cathedral in Birmingham, Alabama, was murdered by a Methodist minister who was outraged by the marriage of his daughter to a Puerto Rican. The minister, Edwin Stephenson, was defended by future Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black and acquitted. &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/methodist-minister-asks-forgiveness-for-1921-murder-of-father-coyle-in-birmingham.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

My aunt, Sister Mary Susan Boyle, was stationed at the Sister Miriam Theresa League House in Convent Station, New Jersey. She worked closely with Sister Zita who was in charge of the League.

Pat and I worship at the same extraordinary-rite Sunday Mass in the nation’s capital, but I haven’t had a chance to speak to him since his firing. I have read a column he wrote about it. His contract was terminated when MSNBC buckled under pressure from groups outraged by his most recent book, Suicide &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/thoughts-triggered-by-the-firing-of-pat-buchanan.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On this day, September 9, the Church honors a Jesuit missioner who was one of the greatest saints of the New World. Saint Peter Claver never left the port city of Cartagena after his ordination there in 1615. His superior in Spain had sent him directives five years before to &#8220;make haste&#8221; for New Granada (Colombia) to assist another missionary who was overwhelmed by work. One &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/the-slave-of-the-slaves-forever-signed-pedro-claver.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As has already been noted on the SBC website, Archduke Otto von Habsburg, who in 1916 became heir to the throne of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, has died. I’d like to offer a couple of additional thoughts. The Archduke passed away in his sleep at his home in Bavaria during the night of July 3-4. He was 98. He lived long enough to see his father, &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/rip-archduke-otto-von-habsburg.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is probably safe to say that everyone reading this knows of the famous preacher on Boston Common of the 1950’s, Father Leonard Feeney, and of the religious brothers who accompanied him there each Sunday.  Father preached the unvarnished truth of the Catholic Faith and was eventually silenced and banished by the powers that be of the Archdiocese of Boston for that courageous act.  A &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/david-goldstein-and-martha-moore-avery.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

Paul Harvey-like, I would venture to tell &#8220;the rest of the story.&#8221; In brief, it is this: the famed Lakota Sioux medicine man, warrior, and adventurer (who traveled to England to perform for the Queen) converted to Catholicism, was baptized &#8220;Nicholas,&#8221; and taught his &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/ad-rem-no-158.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Practically every American has heard of the storied railroad engineer of the late 1800’s, Casey Jones, made famous throughout the years in song, story, and film. But it is generally not known that he was baptized a Catholic at the age of twenty-two in Saint Bridget’s Church in Whistler, Alabama, near the coastal city of Mobile.

		<description><![CDATA[During the long years (1942-1978) in which I was privileged to associate with Father Feeney on a daily basis, I kept a record of statements he would make from time to time, in his sermons or lectures, or in ordinary conversation that struck me at that moment as proceeding from a deep mystical realization or apprehension. I felt an irresistible impulse to record these sayings &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/remembering-father-feeney.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>
