Good News from Mexico: I talked with Karina Saturday night and she says she has set up her little pharmacy in Cuernavaca and it is going well. Unfortunately, a couple of days ago she fell in the street and broke her polio brace. Her mother, Maria Luisa, whose cancer seems to be in remission, has worked the pharmacy while Karina stayed home to recuperate. Monday she hopes to return to work. Our seed money seems to be bearing fruit.

    Deuteronomy 8:  He therefore let you be afflicted with hunger, and then fed you with manna, a food unknown to you and your fathers, in order to show you that not by bread alone does one live, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of the LORD.
    1 Corinthians 10:  The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ?  The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?
    John 6:  Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me.

    Rosemary’s Blessing      

    Loving Father,

    often we forget your gifts to us,

    letting them pass unnoticed through each day.

    Show us how to look again, to see through your eyes

    and give freely in response to what we see.

    Amen

    Wisdom 9: Who can know God’s counsel, or who can conceive what the LORD intends?  For the deliberations of mortals are timid,  and unsure are our plans.

    Philemon: Perhaps this is why he was away from you for a while, that you might have him back forever, no longer as a slave but more than a slave, a brother, beloved especially to me, but even more so to you, as a man and in the Lord.

    Luke 14: Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.
