    12th Sunday in Ordinary Time, June 21, 2026

    Jeremiah 20:  But the LORD is with me, like a mighty champion: my persecutors will stumble, they will not triumph. In their failure they will be put to utter shame, to lasting, unforgettable confusion.
    Romans 5:  But the gift is not like the transgression. For if by the transgression of the one the many died, how much more did the grace of God and the gracious gift of the one man Jesus Christ overflow for the many.
    Matthew 10:  Are not two sparrows sold for a small coin? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father’s knowledge. Even all the hairs of your head are counted. So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

     


    Serenity is not the ability to accommodate wrongs; it is the ability to point them out without apology. “Not to be angered by injustice,” Eknath Easwaran writes, “is a lack of sensitivity.”

    Jackie Ritter sends us a note about a special service I have never heard about:

      

    Just a reminder on our "Room in the Inn" Program for the holidays.   We're offering hotel rooms at no cost to our guests coming to visit loved ones in area hospitals, nursing homes and treatment centers on Christmas Eve.

       

    Tharaldson Lodging Company, which operates our hotel, began the "Room in the Inn" program in 1988.  With times as they are now in Michigan and across the country, we're trying to relieve some of the financial stress of having family in a care facility and by offering free rooms to those in need, we hope to make it a little easier for families to get together during the holidays.

      

    If you happen to know of anyone who's in this circumstance, or need more information about our "Room in the Inn" program, please contact our General Manager, Rick Porco, or visit our Website for all of our locations at  http://www.tharaldson.com
