You cannot trust people who, at 6:00 A.M., get on a bike for a ride that goes no where.  Then they throw a birthday party for some guy who just hit the big 80.  You cannot trust that Jewish Community Center!

1 Samuel 26:  Do not harm him, for who can lay hands on the Lord's anointed and remain unpunished.

1 Corinthians 15:   Just as we have borne the image of the earthly one, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly one.

Luke 6:  For the measure with which you measure will in return be measured out to you.

 Community Events:  

 1.  Highly
recommended: This Saturday,  The Open Window of Dallas is
bringing to Dallas Francis Vanderwall, a biblical scholar and great
presenter.  He is a long time friend and former Jesuit.

He will join us for Mass on Sunday, Sept. 29, but will
share his insights

into the Bible on Saturday, the 28th.  You will
find it a fascinating and

amusing Saturday.  Don’t judge him badly because
he is my long time friend.  Welcome.

up.  Her contact, Blake, knows that we

Connected
with this, a plan is developing to visit the Christmas lights in Highland
Park on bikes one evening, a common event.  We have our guide, Chris Phipps,
who lives there, and the old geezer can second, since this is his old
neighborhood.  Get your bike lights polished.

True? 

 Finish each day and
be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities
have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall
begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old
nonsense.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
