Reminder for Sunday September 2, 2012, 22nd Ordinary Time B

Isaiah 11:  Then the wolf shall be a guest of the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; the calf and the young lion shall browse together, with a little child to guide them.
Romans 15:  May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to think in harmony with one another, in keeping with Christ Jesus, that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Matthew 3:  I am baptizing you with water, for repentance, but the one who is coming after me is mightier than I.  I am not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

When we learn to see every flower, hear every bird, we will be closer than we have ever been to being fully alive.
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister

From Lynda Fleming:

Senior Citizens Angel Tree:
We are partnering again this year with the Wellness Center for Older Adults in Plano. There are a variety of ways you can help:
~ If you would like to sponsor a senior, please text Lynda Fleming at 972-754-0823 with the number of seniors you would like to sponsor and a budget amount.
~ If you would like to make a contribution, please Venmo her @LyndaFleming and she’ll be happy to shop for you.
~ if you would like to donate $20 gift cards, the most requested places are Walmart, Subway, Target and Aldi.

Thanks so much for your support and generosity!!

I asked Lynda how much it would cost to sponsor a person.   She said  it would probably be $20-$30. They typically want pajamas or a couple pieces of clothing or a small appliance, things like that…
She also said The Wellness Center will contact as many of their people as they can to ask for needs and wants. If they don’t need anything specific, we give them a gift card depending on if they asked for a restaurant, groceries or general items.

Toy World with CC, Emma, and Cowboy Cole.

Normally very shy, Emma approaches the altar.

True? 

 It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to be kind to others.

Emma arrives at the altar and leaves a little gift, her toy car.

Wake up, Joe.  Just because Marsha is not here you think you can sleep during my homily.  

TRUE?

I very quietly confided to my best friend that I was having an affair.

He turned to me and asked, "Are you having it catered?"

And that, my friend, is the sad definition of "OLD".

You are lucky, John.  When I was supposedly growing up in Christ the King parish, they had ushers who knocked sleepers on the head when they got caught sleeping during the sermons of old Monsignor Bender.   How come we got so many sleepers this morning, John?

Anything happening in our Catholic World?

2.   Steve Blow used to write column for the Dallas Morning News.  On at least two occasions, one of which was our wedding, Steve wrote me up & we became friends.  John Cade came across this article, which I had never seen.   It is a homily subject.  It will make your day.  Enjoy.   Download PET DELIGHTS 8-15-18

Donna, Bernadette, and Dana, I don't even want to ask what is going on there.  You even got Cody and Ben watching.

See you Sunday.
