What's up in Ye Old Catholic Church

1.  Thoughts on opening up churches,  https://www.ncronline.org/news/opinion/ncr-today/your-thoughts-reopening-churches-after-lockdown

 

 

 

From John Cade:

A teenage boy had just passed his driving test and inquired of his father as to when they could discuss his use of the car. His father said he'd make a deal with his son, "You bring your grades up from a C to a B average, study your Bible a little, and get your hair cut. Then we'll talk about the car." The boy thought about that for a moment, decided, he'd settle for the offer, and they agreed on it.After about six weeks his father said, "Son, you've brought your grades up and I've observed that you have been studying your Bible, but I'm disappointed you haven't had your hair cut." The boy said, "You know, Dad, I've been thinking about that, and I've noticed in my studies of the Bible that Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair, and there's even strong evidence that Jesus had long hair.

Dad’s reply:

 "Did you also notice they all walked everywhere they went!"

Gratitude takes nothing for granted,

is constantly awakening to new wonder
and to praise of the goodness of God.

Acts 2:  And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim.
1 Corinthians 12:  No one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit. There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone.
John 20:  Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

No one fears a person who is kind. Everyone feels safe with the person who is
kind. Kindness makes friends of us all. “Kindness,” Mark Twain says, “is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.”
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister
