I've been enjoying Cafe au Lait with pumpkin pie spices (at least on the days when it's not in the high 70s!), and I've been pretty impressed with this method of frothing the milk. Try it with your coffee, or my favorite chai recipe. Enjoy!

Bishop/Cardinal/Pope
Costume: cassock: adult band collared shirt (dyed magenta for bishops or red for cardinals); surplice: round lace tablecloth with hole cut for head (the one pictured is a few antimacassars safety pinned together); pectoral cross, knitted or crocheted zuchetto (just a circle)

The Holy Father's Prayer Intentions for October
People in Despair. That those feeling so crushed by life that they wish to end it may sense the nearness of God's love.
World Mission Day. That the celebration of World Mission Day may help all Christians realize that we are not only receivers but proclaimers of God's word.
