A reader asks if a mother can disown a good Catholic child and still reach heaven. The column weighs parental love, grave sins, and rare cases of disowning, then shifts to parish practices such as pew rent and published donor lists with advice to write a bishop and donate anonymously. It also reflects on catechism changes and Sabbath wording.
The church frames Advent as a season of penance urging confession before Christmas and fervent Holy Communion. It highlights almsgiving and prayer, urges temperance, and encourages remaining in prayer after Mass. It calls for mortification and frequent sacraments to ensure a holy Christmas.
