Happy 89th Birthday Mother Angelica!

Join me in wishing Mother Angelica a Happy Birthday. Mother Angelica is 89 years old today. While it has been a while since she has appeared publicly, her work continues to touch the lives of many within and out of the Church. EWTN has played a vital role in my formation a Catholic man. Furthermore, I am convinced that a pilgrimage that Stacey and I took to visit the National Shrine of the Blessed Sacrament and EWTN, helped fortify our resolve as we waited out the annulment process.

I still enjoy listening to her "live" shows. Her wit and no nonsense approach to the faith is still powerfully infectious. Here are some links to books about Mother Angelica that will allow you to share her prayers and witticisms:
