Recipients of the Excellent Blog Award must award it to 10 more people whose blogs you find “Excellent Award” worthy. You can give it to as many people as you want-even those that have received it already, but please award at least 10 people.

I would like to take this opportunity to highlight some of the blogs written by members of the Catholic Spitfire Grill. Most of them aren’t updated regularly but all of them represent a precious spiritual journey so the archives are worth browsing.

Meet Kicking and Screaming who is contemplating a jump across the Tiber from the Methodist Church.

Wendy at St. Cecilia’s was so very stridently anti-Catholic when I first started interacting with her that it’s really hard to describe unless you have access to some of what she posted on the homeschooling forum that I frequent. Maybe she’ll do some before and after posts. Go on over and encrouage her to do just that.

When Take the Long Way Home is blogging, you don’t want to miss a single word. Go read her archives and see if you don’t agree. And if  you’ve ever been told that a Bishop’s miter is really the Catholic church’s way of worshipping (it really isn’t hard to find links like that) the pagan god, Dagon, don’t miss this post. Go leave a comment and tell her that you wish she’d write more! (Tell her I sent you.)

Little Toe in the Tiber reminds us that we all need to pray for orthodox priests and RCIA teams. She’s converting from the Anglican church.

Kid Sister of Blessed Imelda hasn’t been blogging nearly enough lately. she gives me pathetic excuses about post-move upheaval and teaching her four children….like somehow that would matter to me. Isn’t it all about what I want to read!?  Put her on your reader though….I promise to keep nagging her until she does blog regularly`. And until she does, don’t miss her conversion story. Start with this category here.

So much for the new. Here are some of the blogs that I look forward to seeing new posts on with eagerness.

Et-Tu Jen…..I almost wish the scorpions would come back (just teasing Jen….well sort of teasing) but her current entries on her Reckless Experiment with Prayer are not to be missed.

I grew up with and attended the same church with Ullage: eullage, eullier, ouil in my youth. His children crack me up….he deserves them….and I enjoy his accounts of living in China (and all of the other fascinating places he’s been.) His books are not really my cup of tea (they’re very good though) but I buy them anyway and you should too….loyalty issues here. The big question here is will he see this and can he figure out who I am? If you do Roy, that should be confirmed via email not the comments section.

Rise and Pray loves the Divine Office and is discerning a vocation to the priesthood.

Opinionated Catholic is from Louisiana, has an abnormal obsession with LSU football (like I CARE!?) but other than that, he’s a lot of fun (just teasing….well sort of I really don’t like football.) He always has the text of the Pope’s Wednesday Angelus up too…love it.
