Reminder for the 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, January 26, 2025

Nehemiah 8:  Then Ezra praised God, the great God, and all the people responded, "Oh Yes! Yes!" with hands raised high. And then they fell to their knees in worship of God, their faces to the ground.

1 Corinthians 12:  You are Christ's body – that's who you are! You must never forget this. Only as you accept your part of that body does your "part" mean anything.

John 2:  God's Spirit is on me; he's chosen me to preach the Message of good news to the poor, Sent me to announce pardon to prisoners and recovery of sight to the blind, To set the burdened and battered free,  to announce, "This is God's year to act!"

    “Father and Mother of all:

    We give thanks for food and remember the hungry,

    We give thanks for health and remember the sick,

    We give thanks for friends and remember the friendless,

    We give thanks for freedom and remember the enslaved.

    May our giving thanks stir us to service, that our blessings may be shared with others. Amen.”

    What's going on in Ye Olde Catholic Church
     
    1.   Charles Curran writes on Hans Kung. two great pioneering Catholic theologians.  Kung was an inspiration for me before & during my 10 years in East Africa.  Charlie Curran, another inspiration, teaches theology at S.M.U.   We've had dinner together and I regret that I never invited Curran to join us in concelebrating our Sunday Mass. 
    Shortly after I was excommunicated for getting married I had dinner with Charlie one evening and he was so supportive of me & our community.  I was touched and humbled.
