1.       A quiet week.  Nothing to pass on.

Who let these hoodlums in, Bill, Beth and Rob.

True? 

We are so obsessed with doing that we have no time and no imagination left for being. As a result, men are valued not for what they are but for what they do or have — for their usefulness.

Thomas Merton

Who let this dog in? She says she is Catholic.

JSM Mission-Faith Statement

   Help create a Catholic Community that welcomes all God’s

People, provides for and challenges spiritual and total growth.

Hey, Emma, Let's go running around.

Peace.  Sez Patricia, "Do I have to?"

Proverbs 8:   "The LORD possessed me, the beginning of his ways,  the forerunner of his prodigies of long ago; from of old I was poured forth,  at the first, before the earth." 

Romans 5:  Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith to this grace in which we stand, and we boast in hope of the glory of God.

John 16:  But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth.  He will not speak on his own, but he will speak what he hears, and will declare to you the things that are coming.

Be certain to do something that gives you joy – reading, music, playing with the pet,  holding the baby – at least once a day.  It makes getting up the next day easier.

The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister
