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?

   
 True?

Life is no brief candle to me.
It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly
as possible before handing it on to future generations.

    Sorry for a mess of this bulletin. Computer glitches. Better next editiom.


    Readings: Leviticus 13, 1-2, 44-46, The one who bears the sore of leprosy shall cry out, "Unclean."; Psalm 32, I turn to you, Lord, in time of trouble, and you fill me with the joy of salvation; 1 Corinthians 10, 31-11, 1, Do everything for the glory of God; Mark 1, 40-45, If you wish , you can make me clean.

    1. Information on Rosemary. Her left elbow is healing well, according to the doctor. He showed us the number of screws he needed: nine! Plus a plate.

    3. From Bill Hammond, a spring break volunteer opportunity in Alabama:
    As you know the tornado that went thru Tuscaloosa and Birmingham Alabama last April left a swath of destruction almost 200 miles long. Many of the larger communities have received help in cleaning up and reconstructing over the last 9 months. There are some areas North and West of Birmingham that have not received much help and need assistance.
    Bona Responds is a volunteer group mostly of students from my Alma Mater St Bonaventure University in Western New York, that go out on their vacation days to assist in the rebuilding in these areas. The next trip will be during their Spring Break February 25th thru March 2nd in Walker County Alabama. They were there in early January this year and found such a tremendous need that they are going back over their Spring Break.
    They need some adult assistance and I am planning on going for several days (TBD based on everyone’s availability) to help and I’m looking for others that would like to join me. I plan on driving my suburban and if we need more room we can take other cars. The accommodations are to be determined but most likely in a local church. Meals may be provided by the locals and if so the expense are very minimal. The work ranges from minor repairs to construction so there is something for everyone’s skill level. All that is required of you is a positive attitude and a willingness to help out. Please give me a call or send me an E-Mail and let’s discuss supporting this effort. If you know of anyone else not on this E-Mail that would be interested please pass it on. Thanks

  • Reminder for the 29th Sunday in Ordinary Time, October 19, 2025

    Exodus 17:  Moses’ hands, however, grew tired; so they put a rock in place for him to sit on.  Meanwhile Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side and one on the other, so that his hands remained steady till sunset.
    2 Timothy 3:  Remain faithful to what you have learned and believed, because you know from whom you learned it, . . .
    Luke 18:  For a long time the judge was unwilling, but eventually he thought, ‘While it is true that I neither fear God nor respect any human being, because this widow keeps bothering me I shall deliver a just decision for her lest she finally come and strike me.'” 

     

    A message from Cody:
    Thank you all for doing what you did and for those of you who made it to the service for sure. It was a very heartfelt event to say the least.

     

     

    One purpose of feasting is to get back in touch with the earth that sustains us, to glorify the God that made it and to pledge ourselves to save the land that grows our food.
