Feast of the Dedication of the Lateran Basilica in Rome November 9, 2025

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

    John, I attended a staff meeting today with the folks at Plano Community Homes.  While the income isn’t all that great, PCH needs some additional people.

    True? 

    Once upon a time a man whose axe was missing  suspected his neighbor's son. The boy walked like a thief, looked like a thief, and spoke like a thief. But the man found his axe while digging in his garden, and the next time he saw his neighbor's son, the boy walked, looked and spoke like any other child.
