Edited by volunteers of the Faith
Sanguis Christi
Welcome, cultured reader, to Cyber Nations newest Christian user blog; created for the entertainment and education of the people of Cyber Nations.
I am known as Malkavian, of Santa Monica, and I am a fellow citizen of Bob proclaiming the Christian faith in the tradition of Roman Catholicism; believing upon the Sancta Trinitas unus Deus (also recognized as the Holy Trinity)––God the Father; Jesus, the Savior of Mankind, Lamb of God; and the Holy Spirit.
On Sunday I am a regular attendant of the Roman Mass, and offer myself as an Altar Server in assistance to my local clergy in the archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. I possess the godly gift of youth at the ripe age of twenty years, and donate my excess time to the cause of community projects and the occasional charity or goodwill organization.
And now it is with great care, but great exuberance, that I christen the sole active blog dedicated to the exchange of Catholic culture, history, and philosophy: Sanguis Christi.
The "Sanguis Christi" blog shall strive to entertain and inform our cyber audience with interesting material pertaining to many subjects. Special dedication is given to the histories of numerous civil and religious holidays; but we will also touch upon the history of the Church, Catholic cannon, and the Holy Bible itself. If God so wills, I shall do my utmost to update once per week (usually aiming for Saturday evening), though there may be occasional variation.
The "Sanguis Christi" blog is primarily a work loyal to the passion of Christendom and the Papacy of Rome, and in accordance with the customs of my local religious authority, we will observe each and every Christian holiday and feast above those of the normal secular nature endorsed by the state of Texas and the American Republic. However, the many great civil holidays with religious underpinnings will also be covered.
Famous [religious] holidays and feasts that are noticeably observed, even by the public at large, include:
The Sabbath
Christmas Eve/Christmas Day
All Saints (Hallows) Eve
Saint Valentine's Day, and
Saint Patrick's Day
In addition to most any commercially significant day with religious connotations.
Irrespective of commercial influence in more recent times, the "Sanguis Christi" blog will place dominant focus on the religious roots and character of these days, with minimal emphasis on non-religious customs which have been introduced (e.g. the wearing of green colored fabrics on Saint Patrick's Day). And one idea I hope to spread with coming articles is that these days may be enjoyed with both piety and merrymaking, taking to heart the full message of Christ embodied in each event, without necessarily having to rely upon commercial and secular influence which have perhaps diminished their original purpose.
Each session of the forum blog shall usually conclude with a normal Roman Catholic prayer and a special message for the general Christian membership of this forum. It will be sealed with the symbolism of the Chi Rho, the earliest symbol of Christ known to the Holy Mother Church. May God be in your hearts. ENTRY EDITION #1
"For But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ by grace you have been saved and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus."
Ephesians 2:4-7
