  • For the past years we have had the privilege of helping one of our members who had fallen on really bad times. Recently he was successful in getting disability and some significant compensation.  Last Sunday at Mass he gave the ministry a check for $15,000. I and everyone was quite moved, never expecting or asking for return payment.  The board has suggested that we place this amount into a money market. We will use the interest and save the principle for emergencies. Thanks first to our member and secondly to you all for your non-stop generosity!

    Rosemary's Blessing: 

     

    We, unaccustomed to courage
    exiles from delight
    live coiled in shells of loneliness
    until love leaves its high holy temple
    and comes into our sight
    to liberate us into life.

    Love arrives
    and in its train come ecstasies
    old memories of pleasure
    ancient histories of pain.
    Yet if we are bold,
    love strikes away the chains of fear
    from our souls.

    We are weaned from our timidity
    In the flush of love's light
    we dare be brave
    And suddenly we see
    that love costs all we are
    and will ever be.
    Yet it is only love
    which sets us free.

    When the decorations of Christmas have been packed away
    then the work of Christmas begins:

     Lord, help us …

    to heal those broken in spirit,
    to feed the hungry,
    to release the oppressed,
    to rebuild the nations,
    to bring peace among all peoples,
    and to make a little music with the heart…
