The clock is ticking . . .

It all comes down to Feb. 28. That’s the cutoff date. While the world is focused on Feb. 28 being the final day of Pope Benedict XVI’s pontificate, it’s also the last chance Catholics have to show “charity that makes the Church to live in love,” as the pope said in his final general audience Feb. 27, and have it count. Tomorrow is the final deadline to register online for this weekend’s Hike for the Homeless benefiting St. Joseph the Worker. Registration for the Mach 9 "Run 4 the Nuns" is also underway.
