TORONTO (LifeSiteNews) — A religious order has decided to sell a Marian shrine beloved to Toronto Catholics and well-known as a source of many reported miracles. 

On August 15, Fr. Gabriel Haber, the Provincial Superior of the Order of St. Basil the Great of St. Josaphat, announced that the order is in the process of selling their Toronto-based monastery which includes the Marian Shrine of Gratitude, as faithful Catholics continue to pray the shrine will be preserved.

Again, the world is declining in entropy.  

“No Margin; No mission”.

Perhaps, if there had been an admission charge, then the place might have survived.

Sad to see the beautiful places being absorbed by crass materialism.

The people are robbed by the fiat currency system such that they have no wealth left to donate to the beautiful places.

Where and when does it all grind to a halt?

This Aaron Judge home run turned into one very uplifting moment.

Judge’s sixth-inning long-ball in the traveled 427 feet into the upper deck at Rogers Centre in Toronto on Tuesday night during the Yankees’ 9-1 win over the Blue Jays. It was quickly picked up by a fan wearing Blue Jays gear — who almost immediately turned around and offered it to a youngster seated behind him wearing a Judge T-shirt.

Take that Philly fans.  This is what a “rivalry” is all about.  We’re all people.  And, this fan certainly racked up a whole lot of “karma points” imho.

It’s really what is it all about.
