Stolen!

... from AmericanPapist:

1. "We are not the problem, we are the solution," says Fr Thomas Coughlin, a deaf Honolulu priest who has founded the Dominican Missionaries for the Deaf Apostolate with five other deaf men.

Deaf since birth, it was Fr Coughlin's lifelong dream to start a religious community where sign language is the primary means of expression at both the eucharistic table and the dinner table, according to the Catholic News Service.

Awesome! I would never even think of the need for deaf priests ... the need is out there.

2. Two sweet-looking Benedict XVI wallpapers from Ignatius Press.
