David Jennings used Bishop Vann's letter in the North Texas Catholic as a guide to explain how to prepare for the Lenten Season.
Here is a link to that letter:
“As iron sharpens iron, so man sharpens his fellow man.” (Proverbs 27:17). The Joe Catholic blog is intended to provide Catholics and non-Catholics with resources to assist them in answering God's call to holiness. Our goal is to help people learn their faith, so they can live their faith and share their faith.

La Capilla San Jose
Here are images for the chapel David Jennings mentioned in Joe Catholic this morning. There is the full sketch of the chapel David made this week for submission for a permit and a poster he did back in 2007 announcing the project. It shows the building site and the cross that he made that will go on top of the front wall as shown in the sketch. David made the cross for the chapel on new year's day 2005.
The pictures below are of the doors that he traveled to New Mexico between Christmas and New Years to pick up in Santa Fe and transport north to Abiquiú. These will be the double doors used for the entrance as shown in the sketch. The design is a very traditional New Mexican adobe church except that this one will have a vault running lengthwise which should make the interior more spacious feeling and very dramatic. David asks for all the men, especially us Joe Catholics, to pray for the project and those working on it, that it will remain a Holy and safe project for all those involved.
The chapel will be dedicated to St. Joseph in memory of David's mother, Isabel. It would be nice if the Joe Catholic group made a pilgrimage there someday and also to stop by the historic church at Chimayo. Perhaps the group can plan the pilgrimage around the scheduled dedication of the chapel.
