Special Notice Saturday, March 28, 2020

Dearest Community Members,

Happy Saturday Evening.  I am disappointed to tell you that we have not been able to put together a live stream for tomorrow's Mass.

Becky has worked tirelessly on this project and Mike Moran has also put in many hours on the project.  As of now we are hoping to get a You Tube presentation together of the Mass tomorrow at 9:30 at Legacy.  If we succeed we will put it out on the Blog tomorrow and you should be able to click on the link and see a presentation of the Mass.  We hope to put the link in around noon.  You will not get an email about the Blog until Monday BUT if you go to www.johnstackministries.com about 1:00 it should be out there

In the meantime you have the readings and John Cade's excellent homily so that you can reflect as a family on what you read.

 

Have a peaceful and healthy week.

    What's going on in Ye Olde Catholic Church
     
    1.   Charles Curran writes on Hans Kung. two great pioneering Catholic theologians.  Kung was an inspiration for me before & during my 10 years in East Africa.  Charlie Curran, another inspiration, teaches theology at S.M.U.   We've had dinner together and I regret that I never invited Curran to join us in concelebrating our Sunday Mass. 
    Shortly after I was excommunicated for getting married I had dinner with Charlie one evening and he was so supportive of me & our community.  I was touched and humbled.
     
     
     
     
     
     
  • Reminder for Easter Sunday, March 31, 2024

    Acts of the Apostles 10: You know what has happened all over Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached, how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power.  He went about doing good and healing all those oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.

    Colossians 3:  When Christ your life appears, then you too will appear with him in glory.

    John 20:  Then the other disciple also went in, the one who had arrived at the tomb first, and he saw and believed.   For they did not yet understand the Scripture that he had to rise from the dead.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    The Christmas Story will always be the story of Emmanuel, of God-with-us, always and everywhere, in the everyday, in the chaos, in the flight into exile, in the love between a man and a woman and in the birth of a child. 

    It is the story of God who heals, empowers and loves us just as we are – in our greatness and our foolishness. 

    As we anticipate the joy, the love and the peace that are God's Christmas gifts to us, let us receive them with gratitude and be sure to unfold them and share them especially where they need to be more visible.

    Rosemary's Blessing:  

    O God, we thank you for the fact that you have inspired men and women in all nations and in all cultures. We call you different names: some call you Allah; some call you Elohim; some call you Jehovah; some call you Brahma; some call you the Unmoved Mover. But we know that these are all names for one and the same God. Grant that we will follow you and become so committed to your way and your kingdom that we will be able to establish in our lives and in this world a brother and sisterhood, that we will be able to establish here a kingdom of understanding, where men and women will live together as brothers and sisters and respect the dignity and worth of every human being. In the name and spirit of Jesus. Amen.
