Hi, Emma, Happy Easter

 

 

Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:

 

Risen Jesus, help us to be human expressions of the God

you proclaimed: a God who is gracious and merciful,

slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.

 

May we know deeply God's great love for us, and like

God, lean toward those suffering, oppressed and poor.

 

Taken from A Reflection and Prayer for Easter by S. Jean Amore, CSJ

    Cindy Cramer:  Here is the latest on Cindy from her daughter.

    Good news! My mom is making great progress in rehab and they've given her a tentative discharge date of August 13! She's walking on a walker already, but they want her to have time to build up her strength some more before letting her out.
     
     
    Also — there is no need to bring her food anymore. It turns out, the food at this place is really good — much better than the hospital food was! 
     
    Thank you all again so much for all your cards, gifts, thoughts, and prayers! You are really helping to make her stay more tolerable, and she is fortunate to have such a strong support network!

    and none go hungry or poor; 

    a world where the riches of creation are

    shared, and everyone can enjoy them;

    live in harmony and mutual respect; 

    a world where peace is built with justice,

    and justice is guided by love.

    Give us the inspiration and courage to

    build it, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

    Amen.
