Following an ancient Jewish marriage custom, Austin stomps on a wine glass wrapped in a napkin.    The custom certainly seems to refer back to the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem.  Then multiple interpretations come up.  I chose the idea that the couple celebrates how all of our ancestors have navigated the broken glass in their lives and says to the couple that they, too, because of being a couple, will navigate successfully the broken glass in their own lives.

Rosemary’s Blessing      

May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.

May you be content with yourself just the way you are.

Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.

It is there for each and every one of us.                                                                                     

From a prayer by Saint Terese of Liseaux

For those who have wondered about where our food drives go, Ken explains:

The food goes to the Network of Community Ministries which provides food, clothing, some limited financial assistance, and referrals, etc. to needy persons who live in the city of Richardson or the Richardson School District. We got started there because Cindy was volunteering there.

 

Jim Mahar of St. Bonaventure & the Bona Responds Team in Dallas to work for a week on the tornado damage.  Jim, instead of taking a cupcake (can you believe!), accepted from us a chain saw.

 

 Have a Great Week, J.S

Brent, who also refuses our cupcakes, instead accepts our $2000 for Souls Harbor for this month.

Rosemary's Blessing

What is success?

To laugh often and much;

to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;

to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;

to appreciate the beauty;

to find the best in others;

to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;

to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.

This is to have succeeded!

Ralph Waldo Emerson
