Henry IIOn December 29, CSS had a St. Thomas a'Becket Feast Day celebration at Toni's house. We watched the movie "Becket" which presented Thomas' adult life story. What was remarkable for me is how relevant our patron saint is for today. Although the movie reflects the 1960s, the problems that faced Thomas are relevant for today. Issues such as:
1. Separation of Church and State and how this separation protects the Church.
2. Sexual Abuse by Clergy and whether civil law or cannon law should be used.
3. Excommunication. Thomas excommunicates a public official for disobedience to Church teachings.

I had a wonderful time celebrating the Feast Day of STAB. I hope we can do this again next year. It was nice to be able to celebrate vespers with our Deacon in Toni's home. It was also a good opportunity to get to know my fellow scripture study friends in a more relaxed atmosphere.
Peace, Anna
Dear Anna...
It was fun to party with our classmates. I hope we can do more of this.
