Easter Sunday approaches and we hope to broadcast live. The link will come via the blog. Here's hoping we get it perfect, thanks to the enormous efforts put out by Mike and Becky.
Just in case you are looking for the most effective medicine. No wonder John Cade is so healthy.
Fast from selfishness; feast on service. Fast from criticism; feast on praise. Fast from discouragement; feast on hope. Fast from complaining; feast on appreciation. Fast from discontent; feast on gratitude.

Invitation Reminder: May 5, Our Anniversary Party.
People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway. If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway. For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
Mother Teresa

JSM Mission-Faith Statement
Help create a Catholic Community that welcomes all God’s People, provides for & challenges spiritual & total growth.
Reaches out to help people who are disadvantaged & make the world we live in a better place to live.
We, unaccustomed to courage exiles from delight live coiled in shells of loneliness until love leaves its high holy temple and comes into our sight to liberate us into life.
Love arrives and in its train come ecstasies old memories of pleasure ancient histories of pain. Yet if we are bold, love strikes away the chains of fear from our souls.
We are weaned from our timidity In the flush of love's light we dare be brave And suddenly we see that love costs all we are and will ever be. Yet it is only love which sets us free.
