Reminder for 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, November 17, 2024

Daniel 12: Men and women who have lived wisely and well will shine brilliantly, like the cloudless, star-strewn night skies. And those who put others on the right path to life will glow like stars forever.

Hebrews 10: It was a perfect sacrifice by a perfect person to perfect some very imperfect people.

Mark 13: He'll dispatch the angels; they will pull in the chosen from the four winds, from pole to pole.

    Breathe of Summer

     

    Creator God
    who breathed this world into being,
    who is discernible within
    the harmony of nature,
    the perfection of a butterfly's wing,
    the grandeur of a mountain range,
    the soaring eagle and humming bird,
    thank you for this world
    which you have created.
    Thank you for summer sun,
    which reminds us
    that your creative breath
    is still alive and active.
    Thank you for the warmth of your love,
    sustaining this world,

    Your garden

  • Reminder for the 4th Sunday of Advent, December 22, 2024

    Micah5:  He will stand tall in his shepherd-rule by God's strength, centered in the majesty of God-Revealed. And the people will have a good and safe home, for the whole world will hold him in respect – Peacemaker of the world!

    Hebrews 10:  When he said, "You don't want sacrifices and offerings," he was referring to practices according to the old plan.   When he added, "I'm here to do it your way," he set aside the first in order to enact the new plan –

    Luke 1:   When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby in her womb leaped. She was filled with the Holy Spirit,  and sang out exuberantly, You're so blessed among women, and the babe in your womb, also blessed!
