I have been tagged for the 1-2-3 Meme by Mark at Jesusmanifesto.com. The game is to grab the book nearest to you and turn to page 123. Find the 5th sentance and share the next 3 sentances with everyone. Then you tag five people.

My sentence is from Seasons of Celebration by Thomas Merton a book I picked up this morning because of it’s brief chapter about Ash Wednesday .

Seasons of Celebration – p. 123, sentece # 5

Blessed and sanctified by the sign of the cross, the ashes become a “remedium salubre” (health-givng medicine) and they bring sanitas (wholeness,cleanness) to the body, as well as protection to the soul (animae tutelam), both of these availing for the remision of sins.

I tag Jason, Christine, Pat, Matt and David.

Update : Justin and Eugene were tagged first by Steve.
