    Genesis 2:  The LORD God formed man out of the clay of the ground and blew into his nostrils the breath of life, and so man became a living being.
    Romans:  One man said no to God and put many people in the wrong; one man said yes to God and put many in the right.
    Matthew 4:  “Get away, Satan! It is written: The Lord, your God, shall you worship and him alone shall you serve.”

     


    For a soul to be fully developed, it must have developed a capacity for contemplative leisure, for thinking things through, for reflection and realization, for growth in understanding.  Reflection is the seedbed of artistry of any kind.
    The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister


    From Lynda Fleming:

    Once again, we would like to put together Easter treat bags for the guys at Souls Harbor.

If you would prefer to give a monetary donation, that would be wonderful! Please see me at church or send your contribution via Venmo or Zelle to 972-754-0823.
