A Special Note from Cathy Bambanek 

My mom passed away Friday from congestive heart failure.  

Visitation is at 7:00PM-8 Tuesday, with a rosary at 8, more visitation until 9.  This is at Ted Dickey West on the George Bush Highway.

A funeral mass will be said at 10:30  Wednesday at St. Marks on 15th Street.  There will be a luncheon afterwards at the church and all are welcome to attend.  Then the cemetary at 1:30.  

I would love to have you come to any or all of them.

If you would like to bring something to the house, we need beer, wine, and appetizers to serve to relatives coming from out of town.  They will only be here Tues and Wed, so we do not need a lot of food.

My address is 2505 heather hill lane.

Thanks to all of you for being great friends.  Please pray for my family at this stressful time.

 

(Sorry, Cathy, I did not get this before publishing the Sunday blog.)

Yep, John & Connie, you snookered me by taking that cupcake to Bill.  Now I cannot pick on you.

 

Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:

 

Oh God of humor enable us to laugh at your mischievous plans. 

Life can become serious during these cold winter months, and our hearts can become heavy and burdened with responsibilities, decisions and trying to keep everyone happy. 

Let us look for the funny things that happen, the unexpected surprise that catches us off-guard, along with the incongruences that we encounter. 

Smile, snicker, giggle, give a belly laugh, and spontaneously guffaw. 

You will be amazed at how God works through laughter.

 

Sr. Mary Elizabeth Schweiger
