Acrobatic Apostles

It's our policy at Miss Marcel's Musings to keep links to a minimum so we don't send you away before you've gotten your fill of our hero, Servant of God Marcel Van.

That being said, Marcel himself is relentlessly insisting that we send you over to Catholic Exchange to read an article that will send you even further with its own links and fun. No use trying to reason with our resident mischief maker; he only says "What's life without a little fun?" Actually, he's after a lot of fun, and you'll find it when you follow where he leads. (Now why do I want to say, "If you lead where he follows?" I guess he wants you to feel like it was your idea!)

With the assurance of Marcel's full endorsement, then, we introduce Maura McKeegan. Maura is a friend of ours and the author of THESE wonderful books (hint: click on THESE), but primarily she's a wife, mom, and friend of the Saints. She's a friend of Marcel's in particular, so he's extra excited to make her a friend of yours - not to mention that she's just written online about about one of his own heroes, St. John Bosco, and another Apostle of Children, the Papal Ninja. 

I can't repress Marcel, nor disappoint him, and we could all use a good pick-me up as the weather gets warmer and the children get restless, so I'm going to give you the link I've been building up to, but don't blame me if your house, like Maura's, turns into an obstacle course. If anyone is to blame, it's Marcel, but no use blaming him either: he'll only laugh, and he's got Jesus on his side. Nothing to it, then, but to do it. 

We begin (or end) with a prayer, and our favorite is more perfect than ever today:

                                                Draw me, we shall run!

And now, click HERE to find out about St. John Bosco, the Papal Ninja, and something beautiful for God. Oh, and don't forget to have fun!
