Monday Madness — February 7, 2022

After a two-week break for the hardest working Lenten script writers in the business to create more brilliant dialogue, Tim and Scott are back with another Emmy-worthy episode of Monday Madness. In the interim, the producers and key grips also put the Supreme Executive Committee back in their places (with Scott on the left and Tim on the right). That sound you hear is the world breathing a collective sigh of relief.

The Lentorium’s shelves are getting bare, so make sure you order your Lent Madness merch right away! You can order your giant bracket posters or Saintly Scorecards at this very moment.

While you’re waiting for Lent Madness to kick off in 23 days, now’s a good time to Google all the saints on the bracket and learn all about them. It’s also a good time to decide which saint you’ll dress up as when you go to church (zoom OR in person) during Lent. If that’s not exciting enough for you, you can always binge-watch the entire oeuvre of Monday Madness. We’re on our eleventh season of pure penitential gold.

This is here for social media sharing. Or you can print it out and frame it. Totally up to you.

    Saints – Bring ’em on! (Just don’t count out the demons ,devil’s attorneys and fake news.) Question which
    a Mennonite acquaintance asked her children every afternoon when they came home from school:
    “Have you covered yourself with GLORY today?”

    Fortunately, I don’t have to Google saints since many years ago at a Post Office auction, my father bought the 15-volume set of Baring-Gould’s “Lives of the Saints.” This is the 2nd edition and I don’t have the date it was published, but it was before Joan of Arc was canonized.

    I ordered my supplies several weeks ago when they were first offered. Any idea when the Pony Express will pick them up, or are the coming via a slow boat from somewhere. Thanks for looking into this for me. WEM, Chico, Ca.

      Hello,

      Forward Movement had to move its materials into a new warehouse due to pandemic-related issues. Unfortunately, this had to happen right in the very busy pre-Lenten season. The good news is that the new warehouse is shipping and should be caught up soon. I fully expect your things will arrive well before Lent, and I’m sorry for the delay. If you want to check on your specific order, call the friendly Forward Movement folks at 800-543-1813 during business hours (EST), and they can check your order.

      Hope you enjoy your merch!

    LOVING “Confusion Corner”! I recognized the Oscar-Felix match-up immediately (being of a certain age). Took me a minute for Thomas Aquinas and Jerome. Thanks for the giggle!
