The Beauty of Grace: 2010 Calendar of Indulgences

Just received this calendar in the mail from a place called Bridegroom Press . It came with a cover letter by Steve Kellmeyer that included these comments: “As someone who has promoted indulgences in the past, we thought you might appreciate finding out more about this way of helping Catholics learn about and practice the work of indulgences.” He is probably referring to this little scuttlebutt at Baylor , about which I offered these comments .

Just for fun, I will name my office door “Wittenburg” and nail the calendar to it!
