Close to ticket time for Christmas:   Two performances at two different venues, one at the Meyerson as usual, the other at the brand new Winspear Opera House.  The plans:

    1.  December 10, Thursday, 7:30: The Meyerson.  Christmas Special, $55 (New Director this Christmas.  David Davidson died of cancer Saturday.)

    2.  December 15, Tuesday, 8:00:   The Winspear, South Pacific, $50 (cheapest in the house; with 15 or more we get better seats at $55)  Our man at the Dallas Morning News, Roger Jones, tells me the Winspear's beauty will take my breath away.  See his op ed in last Sunday's paper. 

An extra: pre-performance wine & cheese at the Tulip Lane parsonage with a tour through the best Christmas decorations in Dallas, i.e., Highland Park.

Let Rosemary or me know if you would like one or both performances.

    Psalm 18, I love you, Lord, my strength

    Sunday Homily: John Cade

     

    A Touching Story from John Cade & his sister:

    Officer James Givens has served with the Cincinnati Police Department for over 26 years, but has never quite experienced anything like this before. He was sitting in his patrol car in a parking lot when he got an unexpected visitor.
    A goose came up to his car and started pecking on the side of it. He threw
    food out for her, thinking that's what she wanted, but she didn't take it.

     

    Image1

     


    She continued to peck and quack, then walked away, stopped and looked back at Officer Givens.
      Then she came back to his car and pecked at it again.  She made it very obvious that she wanted Officer Givens to follow her, so he finally got out of his car and did just that.

    Image1

     

    The goose led him 100 yards away to a grassy area near a creek. Sitting there was one of her babies, tangled up in a balloon string. The baby was kicking its feet, desperate for help.

    Image1

     

    Luckily, Given's colleague, Officer Cecilia Charron, came to help.  She began to untangle the baby, and the mother goose just stood there and watched, quacking.  She didn't become aggressive, and just let Officer Charron do what she had to do to set the baby free

    It was like the mother goose knew they were helping.  Once Charron untangled the baby, she put it down and it ran right to her mom, and they went right to swimming in the creek.

     Charron teared up and said it was the highlight of her 24 years on the force.

     

    Image1

     

    "It seems like something made up.  It was just incredible," Givens said. "I honestly don't know why I decided to follow her, but I did.  It makes me wonder – how do they know to turn to humans when they need help.

    Life is precious.

  • Reminder for the 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time, October 26, 2025

    Sirach 35:  The LORD is a God of justice,  who knows no favorites.
    2 Timothy 4:  The Lord will rescue me from every evil threat and will bring me safe to his heavenly kingdom.
    Luke 18:  But the tax collector stood off at a distance and would not even raise his eyes to heaven but beat his breast and prayed, ‘O God, be merciful to me a sinner.’

     

     

    I have a friend who follows the sun around her back yard in a deck chair with a glass of fresh fruit juice in one hand and a book in the other. Here’s the question: Is she “wasting” time or “celebrating” time? Think carefully before you answer. It can get to be a very important question as life goes by.

    Genesis 2:  The LORD God formed man out of the clay of the ground and blew into his nostrils the breath of life, and so man became a living being.
    Romans:  One man said no to God and put many people in the wrong; one man said yes to God and put many in the right.
    Matthew 4:  “Get away, Satan! It is written: The Lord, your God, shall you worship and him alone shall you serve.”

     


    For a soul to be fully developed, it must have developed a capacity for contemplative leisure, for thinking things through, for reflection and realization, for growth in understanding.  Reflection is the seedbed of artistry of any kind.
