Invitation to pray with Sandra Pratt

 

The Sophia Inclusive Catholic Community, a virtual faith community started in Northwest New Jersey in 2008, is inviting the members of John Stack Ministries to join us,  Sandra and other friends of Sandra Pratt for a Zoom service of blessings, readings and songs honoring Sandra on Saturday morning, May 13.  The start time has not been finalized.  We will probably begin at 11 am Central time (noon Eastern time).  The service will be about 30 minutes.

 

We will send the Zoom invitation email to Rosemary with two attachments (the worship guide and Highlights of Sandra Pratt’s Amazing Life) on Wednesday  5/10.  Rosemary will forward that information to the members of John Stack Ministries.

 

 

A message from Richard Eshelbrenner

There will be a single Parent Family Fun Day.  We recognize single mothers and fathers, as well as their students for a fun low key day in the courtyard with games, picnic, crafts, and TLC.
 
Held on Saturday June 3rd from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm.
UTD at 5550 Harvest Hill, Dallas TX

    True?

     

    Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came up to the very elderly widow and asked,

    "How old was your husband?"

    "98," she replied: "Two years older than me"

    "So you're 96," the undertaker commented.

    She responded, "Hardly worth going home, is it?"

  • Special Notice Saturday, March 28, 2020

    Dearest Community Members,

    Happy Saturday Evening.  I am disappointed to tell you that we have not been able to put together a live stream for tomorrow's Mass.

    Becky has worked tirelessly on this project and Mike Moran has also put in many hours on the project.  As of now we are hoping to get a You Tube presentation together of the Mass tomorrow at 9:30 at Legacy.  If we succeed we will put it out on the Blog tomorrow and you should be able to click on the link and see a presentation of the Mass.  We hope to put the link in around noon.  You will not get an email about the Blog until Monday BUT if you go to www.johnstackministries.com about 1:00 it should be out there

    In the meantime you have the readings and John Cade's excellent homily so that you can reflect as a family on what you read.

     

    Have a peaceful and healthy week.
