Sorry, Everybody,

The old editor left out two notices from the Reminder bulletin:

1.    We are collecting for Dressed for Success ladies dresses and clothing, especially size 18 & up.  On top of this just about any clothing is welcomed.  Bill Hammond will gather everything into his car and take them to their office/warehouse.

 

2.   We are doing our Advent food drive.  Ken & Cindy will collect and deliver the food.  The items especially appreciated: 

Food Drive:  canned meats (like chili, ravioli, etc.), personal care items (shampoo, toothpaste, soap, toothbrush, etc.), peanut butter and jelly, macaroni.  These are the items that disappear the quickest, but they really can use any food or household items.

 

Says Aviana, "Welcome in, Everybody.  Wish I could join you."

 

Welcome: Catholic Mass with coffee & juice, and pastries, some bought, some home-made.

Time: 9:30; Celebrate with the Community & Stack

1.   Nothing special this week.     

 

 

Healing for Cathy & Harper.

 

True?

“The juvenile sea squirt wanders through the sea searching for a suitable rock or hunk of coral to cling to and make its home for life. For this task, it has a rudimentary nervous system. When it finds its spot and takes root, it doesn't need its brain anymore, so it eats it. It's rather like getting tenure.”

• Daniel Dennett, philosopher, writer, and professor

 

 

Healing for Beth.
 

 

See you Sunday.

Exodus 12:  The Lord said to Moses, "Go down at once to your people, whom you brought out of the land of Egypt, for they have become depraved".

1 Timothy 1:  Indeed the grace of our Lord has been abundant, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

Luke 15:  My son, you are here with me always; everything I have is yours.  But now we must celebrate and rejoice, because your brother was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found.

All prayers for a speedy recovery are appreciated.

This from Anthony DeGenova:                                                                                                                    

Dear Father Stack,

Thank you very much for being my sponsor for my LEGO Drive, as part of my Eagle Scout project.

I would appreciate it, if you would please post the attached message to your blog.

I really value all of the support from you and the Stack Community.

Thanks, Anthony DeGenova

 

 

 

Our Father.

 

 

Dear Stack Ministry,

Hello, my name is Anthony DeGenova.  I am 17 years old, and am working on my Boy Scouts Eagle Project.  My mission is to donate LEGO blocks to under-privileged children.  This project includes the collection, cleaning, sterilizing, sorting, packaging, and delivery of the LEGO blocks to a few charities that cater to children. I plan to donate all of mine, and would like very much to collect as many as possible from friends and neighbors like you, who wouldn’t mind giving theirs up for needy children.  I am accepting both used and new LEGO blocks. Please bring the LEGO blocks to church and my parents will pick them up.  Alternatively, I will gladly pick them up from your house, at your convenience. 

If you have any questions, please contact me at:

Telephone: 972-495-3639

Email Address:  anthonydegenova@outlook.com

I look forward to your support, and hope to make this drive and my Eagle project a success. Thank you very much for your help,

Anthony DeGenova

True?

This is my simple religion. No need for temples. No need for complicated philosophy. Your own mind, your own heart is the temple; the philosophy is simple kindness.
