On this week's Deacon Moment, [Deacon Tom](http://www.deacontomonline.com) tells of preaching a RED, WHITE and BLUE homily. It was the blue that caused a little bit of problem. Or was Tom preaching truth?

[Avery](http://www.livewtl.com) has some words of wisdom on the topic of prayer and [Lisa Mladnich](http://www.amazingcatechists.com/) recommends implementing the Bible into your classroom or home.

This week, during our Mary Moment, [Sarah Reinhard](http://snoringscholar.com/) takes us beyond being fed up with snow to a reflection on Our Lady of the Snows (taken in part from [a column at Today’s Catholic Woman last yea](http://woman.catholicexchange.com/2009/08/03/1870/)r).
