    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.

  • Vaccines!!

    Extra, Extra, I am seeing a Light at the end  of the tunnel!

     

    Rosemary & I got our vaccines today at the Fair Park Super Center.  I phoned John Cade, he raced down, and he and his mother in law got the vaccine, too.

     

    As of today you need no appointment.  Just be 75 or older & ID.  I will verify that you are all passed that age.

     

    It took us 1 hour waiting in the car to get in the Fair Park gate 5 check point.  Once in, it was really well organized and in 2 1/2 hours we walked out vaccinated.

    The easy & quick way to get there: 75 South, I30 East, look for the Ferris wheel on your right, and you are there.

     

    Rosemary & I wanted to pass the word as soon as possible.   Rosemary was given this tip yesterday afternoon, Wednesday by a neighbor.   No wonder we love this neighborhood!

    Happy Birthday today, Jan Keszler!

     

    Am I actually seeing a light at the end of the tunnel.

    Prayer for Good Humor
    by St. Thomas More

    Grant me, O Lord, good digestion, and also something to digest.
    Grant me a healthy body, and the necessary good humor to maintain it.
    Grant me a simple soul that knows to treasure all that is good
    and that doesn’t frighten easily at the sight of evil,
    but rather finds the means to put things back in their place.
    Give me a soul that knows not boredom, grumblings, sighs and laments,
    nor excess of stress, because of that obstructing thing called “I.”
    Grant me, O Lord, a sense of good humor.
    Allow me the grace to be able to take a joke to discover in life a bit of joy,
    and to be able to share it with others.
