A concrete example would be not hitting the snooze button. :)

Properly speaking, that would be viewed as a mortification, much like taking a cold shower.

I was thumbing through John Allen's book on Opus Dei, and he told a story about the original class of Opus Dei Priests (there were three of them). St. Josemaria suggested one of them take up smoking, to emphasize that the OD apostolate is in the world. So one of them did.

it reminds me alot of Miles Jesu, which is very dear to me since I have a friend in Miles Jesu. That's another order that is just.......saints and prayer warriors in the making.

[quote name='philothea' date='Jan 8 2006, 11:07 PM']I always carry a copy of [i]The Way[/i] in my purse (it's a small book).  It has been very useful at times.

I do too!!! It's a wonderful little book. I also have Furrow too, but it's not small enough to carry in my purse. Maybe I just need a bigger purse?

they used to hear confessions @ Immaculate Conception.. I think they live in DC but I know they have a women's night of recollection on the 1st monday in every month. I'm not sure what they have in the way of men's groups though.

Yes. I know they have it other places, but with my family's financial situation, the only way I can order online is using a giftcard, such as that from Wal-Mart.
