Cardinal DiNardo to wedding jubilees: ‘God has blessed you’ Celebrating 50th and 25th wedding anniversary Masses BY JO ANN ZUÑIGA Texas Catholic Herald HOUSTON — Linda and Hiett Ives first met at the active singles club of St. Anne Catholic Church on Westheimer in the late 1960s. They enjoyed weekly volleyball games and occasional group trips to ski in Vail and a weekend in New Orleans. Romances kindled, and by 1972, some 24 of these “singles” married each other and could no longer meet under the umbrella of the singles club, Mr. Ives said. “So we started the St. Anne’s Double Ring Club and enjoyed Saturday night dinners with each other. As children were added to the mix, Saturday afternoon park parties were included,” he said. He and his wife celebrated their golden anniversary, and four other couples See WEDDING, page 4A
VATICAN
True discernment requires knowing oneself, pope says

VATICAN CITY (CNS) — To know oneself is a gift and a grace that allows Christians to properly discern between feelings and convictions, Pope Francis said. During his weekly general audience in St. Peter’s Square on Oct. 5, the pope said that knowing oneself requires “patient soul-searching” and the awareness of one’s “way of acting, of the feelings that dwell within us.” “It also requires that we distinguish between emotions and spiritual faculties,” he said. “’I feel’ is not the same as ‘I am convinced.’ ‘I feel like’ is not the same as ‘I want.’ Thus, we come to recognize that the view we have of ourselves and of reality is, at times, somewhat distorted. To realize this is a grace!” See VATICAN, page 2A
