Hey, All You Kids Waiting for Santa: serious rumor has it that Santa has scheduled us again this Christmas Eve, 4:00 P.M. Mass.  Better be nice to an old geezer.  Any other of you kids want to be a shepherd or angel in the Nativity Drama Christmas Eve?  Just show up in costume.

   
 True?

Every now and then go away and have a little relaxation.  To remain constantly at work will diminish your judgment.

    Very Important Please Read

    John Stack and Rosemary are still Covid positive.  Even if they turn negative by Friday, it is probably better for all concerned that we do not come together for Mass on Sunday.  Therefore there will not be a live Mass at the Art Centre on Sunday.  Mass will be on Zoom at the link below.

     

    Also Important

     

    Starting Sunday, September 11th, we will be meeting at:

    Art Centre of Plano

    902 E. 16th St, Plano
