Sunday Reminder for 6-6-10, Corpus Christi

Isaiah 55:  I will renew with you the everlasting covenant, the benefits assured to David.
Romans 8:   What will separate us from the love of Christ?   Will anguish, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword?   No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly through him who loved us.
Matthew 43:  But they said to him, “Five loaves and two fish are all we have here.”  Then he said, “Bring them here to me,” and he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass.  Taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds.  They all ate and were satisfied,

 

 

Celebration is the proof that we have come to distinguish the act of breathing from the gift of being alive. Somewhere it is written, “When life is sweet, say thank you and celebrate. And when life is bitter, say thank you and grow.”
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister

growth.  Reaches out to help people who are disadvantaged &
make the world we live in a better place to live.

 

Genesis 2:  The LORD God formed man out of the clay of the ground and blew into his nostrils the breath of life, and so man became a living being.
Romans:  One man said no to God and put many people in the wrong; one man said yes to God and put many in the right.
Matthew 4:  “Get away, Satan! It is written: The Lord, your God, shall you worship and him alone shall you serve.”

 

For a soul to be fully developed, it must have developed a capacity for contemplative leisure, for thinking things through, for reflection and realization, for growth in understanding.  Reflection is the seedbed of artistry of any kind.
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister

From Becky Good:

Would it be possible for you to put in the blog the fact that we are having a food drive at Legacy for our neediest families?

We’re actually doing a giveaway Sunday the 22nd so if people wanted to drop off food between now and Friday the 20th we’d appreciate it. It could be anything from a turkey to peanut butter to apples. I think apples keep for a while don’t they? 

Thank you for this consideration. See you Sunday online!

November 4, Sunday Mass of Remembrance, thanks to all of you who made this Mass so special.
