Catholic liturgical music is serious, solemn, transcendent, but Catholic musicians are never more fun and inspiring than when they are talking about what they love most. This is what happens at sacred music events around the world: the social and intellectual are critically important elements. The musicians (and music enthusiasts) at the Chant Café, a project of the
Church Music Association of America, bring that sense of life and love to the digital world. As St. Augustine said, "Cantare amantis est."

The cartoonist is one of my housemates who just recently launched this website and after about a week of intense work. These cartoons have been publicized by a number of significant Catholic personalities and groups online. Thanks to the Chant Café for posting this, and please go to his website for more great Catholic art/humor.
