Special Announcement November 17, 2021

 

Because someone attending Mass last Sunday has been diagnosed with the Covid virus, the Board would like to reinstitute some of the precautions that we were using when we first came together again as a Community for Mass.  

  1. Masks.  We have all been wearing masks.
  2. Observe the 6 foot rule.  Families may sit together but different families should maintain a 6 ft distance from each other.
  3. No touching or wandering around.  At the Kiss of Pease, please wave or nod to each other rather than hugging and touching.
  4. Sanitize.  There will be a bottle of hand sanitizer on the table when you come in.

 

We are all vaccinated and these extra precautions should provide a safe atmosphere to celebrate Mass.

 

Thank you.

    Prayer for Peace by St. John XXIII

     

    Lord Jesus Christ,

    who are called the Prince of Peace,

    who are yourself our peace and reconciliation,

    who so often said, “Peace to you,”

    grant us peace.

    Make all men and women witnesses of

    truth, justice, and brotherly love.

    Banish from their hearts whatever might endanger peace.

    Enlighten our rulers that they may guarantee

    and defend the great gift of peace.

    May all peoples of the earth becomes as brothers and sisters.

    May longed-for peace blossom forth

    and reign always over us all.

    Amen.

    Rosemary's Blessing:  

     

    “Rivers do not drink their own water;

    trees do not eat their own fruit;

    the sun does not shine on itself

    and flowers do not spread their fragrance for themselves.

    Living for others is a rule of nature.

    We are born to help each other.

    No matter how difficult it is.

    Life is good when you are happy

    but much better when others are happy because of you.

    Let us remember that pain is a sign that we are alive,

    problems are a sign that we are strong and

    prayer is a sign that we are not alone.

    If we can acknowledge these truths and

    condition our hearts and minds, our lives will be

    more meaningful,

    different and

    worthwhile.”

    Deuteronomy 4:  Yes. What other great nation has gods that are intimate with them the way God, our God, is with us, always ready to listen to us?

    James 1:  Real religion, the kind that passes muster before God the Father, is this: Reach out to the homeless and loveless in their plight, and guard against corruption from the godless world.

    Mark 7:  Jesus called the crowd together again and said, "Listen now, all of you – take this to heart.   It's not what you swallow that pollutes your life; it's what you vomit – that's the real pollution."
