The Venerable John Henry Cardinal Newman, JHCN. (February 21, 1801 August 11, 1890.
Just about every university at one time had a “Newman Center” for its Catholic students. Many have one today and it’s the connection between what is Godly on campus and what is secular.

Good, may there be more of them.
Occasionally, I will worship with some friends who are Native Americans. Their worship traditions are a good bit different from my European ancestors but they are nonetheless deep from within their hearts. They're love for the Lord is obvious.
I have had the opportunity to worship with friends from many other traditions as well ranging from Orthodox and Catholic to Pentecost[I do draw the line if rattlesnakes are involved :-) ]What I have learned from all this is that whatever we are in the flesh, we are one in the spirit. We all are of two bloods. By birth, we share the blood of Adam with the sin and all the physical failings that go with it. And we also share, through the unfathomable mercy of God, the shed blood of Jesus Christ that cleanses us from all of our unrighteousness.
