Reminder for the 19th Sunday in Ordinary Time, August 7, 2022

Ezekiel 47:  This water flows into the eastern district down upon the Arabah, and empties into the sea, the salt waters, which it makes fresh.  Wherever the river flows, every sort of living creature that can multiply shall live, and there shall be abundant fish, for wherever this water comes the sea shall be made fresh.
1 Corinthians 3:  Do you not know that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
 John 2:   He made a whip out of cords and drove them all out of the temple area, with the sheep and oxen, and spilled the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables,and to those who sold doves he said, “Take these out of here, and stop making my Father’s house a marketplace.”

Every one who looks bad isn’t, and everyone who looks suave isn’t. “Always check to see,” the Irish say, “that there’s bread under the butter.”
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister

Opening night performance was hilarious. The energy and enthusiasm was
phenomenal. Great entertainment for a summer evening.

To the Cast and Crew of Noises Off,
I just wanted to take a moment and congratulate you all on a wonderful
production. We were able to attend the opening night performance and can not
tell you how much we loved the entire show. The comedy came in many forms
and was constant throughout all three acts. I honestly can not even imagine
how exhausted you all must be after each performance! In the three years
that Teatro delle Muse has been the resident company of the ArtCentre
Theatre I can't remember a production that generated so many belly laughs
from the audience. I sat in the back row (as is a habit of mine, I enjoy
watching the audience, reviewers and tech crew as much as I do the show) and
never saw a moment of restlessness, nor watch checks or snoring from
audience members. That is amazing! Be very proud of the work you have done.
I am proud to know this show is a part of our theatre. Jamey, I can't wait
to see your next production with TDM, wait productions. there's Grease,
Rocky Horror Picture Show, A Christmas Show and of course Evening Star
Rising. We are so glad to have you as a part of our company and we hope that
you bring all the talent from Noises Off with you to other shows!
