Dang. Been a lot of quakes going on. My great great great grandfather was once mayor of Zagreb, or so I've been told. I hope no one was injured but sad about another cathedral being damaged.
Cardinal Blase Cupich, archbishop of Chicago, is asking Catholic parishes to ring their church bells five times a day between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. This started Saturday.
Each of the five prayer times will be dedicated to a specific group particularly affected by the pandemic.
The groups are listed below:
9 a.m. – Prayer for those infected with the virus and all those who are ill
12 p.m. – Prayer for healthcare workers and those attending to the sick
3 p.m. – Prayer for first responders and essential workers
6 p.m. – Prayer for people of every nation and their leaders
9 p.m. – Prayer for those who have died today

Croatia earthquake shakes capital Zagreb, damaging buildings

Cool.
Fun fact, church bells used to ring every daylight hour so people would know what time it was. Many still do. ( I've been in many bell towers doing maintenance and it's really a loudspeaker.
)
Anyway, this practice was curtailed with the advent of shift workers in factories.
Imagine living next to a neighborhood church and you were just getting to bed at 7 a.m..
Hiya Debi ! Wassup ?

Just snagged our order from Walmart. Only three items not available, so not bad! With the med order and Kroger order Tuesday, we may be able to lock down for 3 weeks. That's our goal right now. I think meat products are the hardest to snag at the moment.
