Rosemary's Blessing

Lord of all,

Bless our families.

Be they formed by blood or by circumstance,

Make them holy.

 

May we find you

In our relationships.

In our marriages, in our families, in our households, in our communities, in our global humanity.

 

May we look across all that divides us

And see family, and embrace as a family does, and love as a family ought to.

 

For where two or three gather in your name. There are you.

Amen.

 

A Family Blessing from CRS (Catholic Relief Services)

    in Jesus Christ you’ll have all the strength necessary.

    Good old friends, Don & Debbie with their daughter, Heather, Jeff, and the beautiful McKinley.  

     

    A special financial report from Grace, our board president:

    On behalf of John Stack Ministries I would like to present the financials for the first quarter of 2015.

     First we want to thank the community for their past and present generosity. We are so thank for all you do and contribute.

     The starting balance on January 1 was approximately 14,000.00 and ending March 31 with a balance of 12,000.00.  That being said we are running 2000.00 short for the first quarter.

    We have a reserve amount of 38,000.00 that we have available to tap into if our situation requires.

      Weekly expenses are approximately 1200.00 per week which includes rent, insurance, music and salary. Rosemary reports the weekly income in the weekly blog so the community can see our weekly deficits which can range from 200.00 to a 400.00 short fall each week.

     If you are able to contribute a small amount more each month we would greatly appreciate your help.  We will review our financials in 6 months and report our situation at that time.

     Thank you to the choir for the outstanding music, the family’s who attend, Kevin and Georgie and also to John Stack, John Cade, and Mike Carroll for their inspirational homilies, in making us think about our daily lives and wanting  to be better individuals. And to Rosemary for all you do that doesn’t get mentioned, as well as your endearing end of mass prayers!

    Thank you,  Grace
