Sunday Snippets is brought to you each week by RAnn at This, That and the Other Thing.It's been a busy couple of weeks here at The Well. I had a quick reflection on The Beloved Disciple and one about consuming "stuff" vs. consuming Christ, found a great Saint of the Year Generator to choose your saint for 2012, and did a book review about the scholarly article Jesus as Healer, started a new link category, online Homilies. I also shared an incredible spiritual resource from St. Mark Coptic Church in DC.
I also shared my usual art, music and poetry, including The Saga of the Cave, Trying to Surprise God and Innkeepers by Sr. Juliemarie McDonald. For art, I brought back a popular post explaining the symbolism of the icon of the Nativity, and featured some street art of logs made to look like colored pencils.
I sincerely hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas Season and that Jesus' love and peace will rein in our hearts year 'round.

Dymphna, thanks for the links to the saint generator and the Coptic spiritual journal. You come up with really interesting stuff for us.
You're welcome! I'm really glad you enjoy reading!
Meant to tell you I like your new background. I am awed at your discipline of keeping a blog!
Thanks! It is from a photo I took out the window from our choir loft @ church. I put it in a photo-editing software and pixelated it.
we've had a nice quiet Christmas. i hope yours was enjoyable as iam sure it was:) i wish you many blessings for the new year. i think your Saint for 2012 is a very good choice.
myself for 2012, i have Saint Therese. i have done much reading and research on Saint Therese in the past few years. I totally identify with her as i do with Saint Bernadette. both are wonderful Saints. Saint Therese is a doctor of the Church as well.
As usual, you always make thought provoking posts that i like to just sit back and absorb. namely, the poetry, and what you write about the Saints. your blog looks wonderful!
Thanks so much, Michele! Our Christmas was fairly quiet too. Thanks for the complements on my blog. It is nice to know I have readers out there!
Saint Therese is one of my very favorites. I think a lot of us can identify with her.
