Rosemary’s Blessing:

People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

Mother Teresa

The Celebration for John Stack was incredible.  John and everyone had a great time,  It was good to see so many faces we haven’t seen in a while.  Many, many thanks to ALL the people who made this a success – Connie and her committee, all who helped with the food, the decorations, flowers, pictures, music, zoom and sound, musicians, reception welcome and of course John Cade for a beautiful Mass. Thank you, thank you!

Some pictures from the celebration

Rosemary’s Blessing:

Glance at the sun. See the moon and the stars.
Gaze at the beauty of earth’s greenings.
Now, think.
What delight God gives to humankind
with all these things. . . .
All nature is at the disposal of humankind.
We are to work with it.
For without we cannot survive.
