Two old stories, but I just saw them, about a priest in the Bronx with unusual but attractive expressions of his calling: as a grower of hops and a provider of work making fashionable clothes. He also keeps bees for honey. Here is Brad Miner of the Catholic Thing on Father O’Connor .
You have a decision to make: double or nothing.
For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.
In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.
So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?
Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
