Blogpost topics have included everything from work/life balance and marital finances to divorce and remarriage, a First Communion memoir, and special needs parenting. I've even covered difficult issues like adultery, homosexuality, and date rape. My articles reporting on Pope Francis' Synod on the Family appeared at stellar Catholic news site Aleteia. To my intense excitement, the Catholic Match Institute also featured my posts on what makes sacramental marriage so special and how to flirt.
The past year also saw the introduction of three new series on the blog. Manny wrote a large block of political-minded posts over the summer -- posts that also ran on Catholictherapists.com. Several long-time married couples have contributed to How to Stay Married 10 Years & Then Some. Many NFP couples have presented important and detailed information on Why & How Natural Family Planning Works for Us. No wonder our whole family collapsed in a sleepy heap for the entire Christmas vacation!
So here's a run-down of the 2014 posts you liked the best, and a request -- tell me what else you'd most like to read about here!

Many blessings on all of you for helping this Catholic marriage support community grow. If there are any topics you'd like to hear more about, please let me know in the comments!
Hi Karee, Congratulations! There are many marriages that suffer from difficulties and conflict. In my parish community alone 4 marriages fell to divorce. Having no real support from the community they eventually left the Catholic Faith. In these cases no one would have assumed there was any problems. and they felt abandoned. I also see marriages where there is emotional and verbal abuse, alcoholism and division. These couples try to save their marriage, however there is little to no support from their parish community. They are afraid to let anyone know because they see so called perfect marriages and they believe their marriage is one of the few that is broken. I would love to see more of these issues addressed and openly discussed. God Bless you for the work you do.
ReplyDeleteBuilding community support is so vital, Tami. As you say, people sometimes do hide their problems until it's too late. I wish there could be a kind of Alcoholics Anonymous for folks with relationship difficulties! But parishes could certainly do more in the way of marriage enrichment groups that could teach people to prevent crises before they happen and nurture a network of friendships to help people through the inevitable times of trouble.

(besthackersworld58@gmail.com)
Has anyone here heard about blank ATM card? An ATM card that allows you to withdraw cash from any Atm machine in the world. No name required, no address required and no bank account required. The Atm card is already programmed to dispense cash from any Atm machine worldwide. I heard about this Atm card online but at first i didn't pay attention to it because everything seems too good to be true, but i was convinced & shocked when my friend at my place of work got the card from guarantee Atm card vendor. We both went to the ATM machine center and confirmed it really works, without delay i gave it a go. Ever since then I’ve been withdrawing $1,500 to $5000 daily from the blank ATM card & this card has really changed my life financially. I just bought an expensive car and am planning to get a house.
