In case you missed it...

In the last post, the daily saint, St. Gabriel Possenti is mentioned as being promoted as the patron saint of handgunners. There is a reason for this and it is explained on the website listed here.

For anyone who doesn't know, handgunners are hobbiests who are not drooling, gun-happy bambi killers. Target shooting is an old and difficult hobby that people take very seriously. With rifles, certain types of target shooting are Olympic sports.

Here's the website of the St. Gabriel Possenti Society, a group of handgunners who are also serious about their religious faith. Really. It's not a joke.
