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

Jeremiah 20:  I say to myself, I will not mention him, I will speak in his name no more.  But then it becomes like fire burning in my heart, imprisoned in my bones; I grow weary holding it in, I cannot endure it.
Romans 12:  Do not conform yourselves to this age but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.
Matthew 16:  Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.  For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

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.

Hildegard of Bingen
