14th Sunday in Ordinary Time, July 3, 2022

No Mass Celebration again this Sunday, March 22, 2020

Sorry Everybody.  

Please pass the word to anyone you think  of.

I will miss you all, John

During this time, you will receive the blog on Saturday (instead of Monday).  It will include the three readings for the Mass, plus John's Homily #3 on Matthew.

We thought by doing this you could celebrate The Word together as a family on Sunday mornings.  John will also leave you with a question to ponder on.

Any other ideas, please let us know.

I miss you girls, Harper & Betsy.

On the lighter side:

People have asked about their donations to the Community during this time. Should you like to make a donation at this time, you can send a check to the house (6107 Tulip Ln., Dallas 75230).  Thanks and John will send you a "thank you" note.

Due to the upcoming storm due this weekend, Mass on Sunday will be on ZOOM.  There will NOT be a Mass at the ArtCentre.

Here is the link to get to the ZOOM:

Rosemary's Blessing:  

Loving Father, help us remember the birth of Jesus, that we may share in the song of the angels, the gladness of the shepherds, and worship of the wise men.

Close the door of hate and open the door of love all over the world.

Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting.

Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings and teach us to be merry with clear hearts.

May the Christmas morning make us happy to be thy children, and Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts, forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus’ sake.

Amen.

Robert Louis Stevenson

Rosemary's Blessing:  

… May God bless you with enough foolishness
to believe that you can make a difference
in this world, in your neighborhood,
so that you will courageously try
what you don't think you can do, but,
in Jesus Christ you'll have all the strength necessary.
