Thanks to all who donated or tried to donate their blood in Sunday’s blood drive.  Despite having about 50% rejected.

Christmas Eve Mass: 4:00 P.M.  Welcome!

The Mass after Christmas, Dec. 30: No Mass.  Rosemary & I will be in Mexico.

Two questions:

  • What do you think about putting together a community directory with just names, perhaps email addresses, phone number, even address?
  • What about a food drive Christmas Eve?  When St. James Parish said they did not want our donations any more, I forgot about the project.  But, we have Food Banks in Plano & Richardson, and people have said they would like to contribute.

Tree Project update: maybe in December?  Waiting to hear from Collin Co. Child Advocacy Center, Park & Los Rios.

See you Sunday.

  • Sunday Mass Reminder for November 18, 2007, Thanksgiving

    Thanksgiving Mass: Last Sunday of this Church Calendar Year: 9:30; coffee, donuts, home made muffins, & juice on the house.

    Place: Vines High School on 15th between Custer & Independence.

    Readings: Sirach 50 22-24; Psalm 113; 1 Corinthians 1, 3-9; Luke 17, 11-19 (these are the readings for Thanksgiving, Nov. 22, page 88 in our booklets) 

    Thankgiving Tree: we will set up a tree with lights on the stage.  Nearby will be paper ornaments on which you may answer the question, " I thank God this year for…"  Use the ribbons to tie it onto the tree.  Kids will find special ornaments that have a picture to color on one side, while the blessing can be put on the other side.  We will keep it up every Sunday into Christmas Eve Mass at 4:00.  Perhaps a couple of blessings can be read anonymously each Sunday.  Our Thanksgiving continues into Christmas.

    From Tom Quinn: Do you know anyone interested in an entertainment center?  It’s a beautiful piece of blonde furniture that is in great condition.  I can’t seem to get any of the Charities to pick it up as I don’t have the vehicle to deliver it.  Quinn, Tom & Theresa, E-mail Address:  tntquinn@peoplepc.com

    November 25: No Mass the Sunday just after Thanksgiving.  Rosemary & I will be at her sister Clare’s house.

  • Reminder for the 18th Sunday in Ordinary Time, August 3, 2025

    Ecclesiastes 1:  For what profit comes to man from all the toil and anxiety of heart with which he has labored under the sun?

    Colossians 3:  For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.    When Christ your life appears, then you too will appear with him in glory.

    Luke 12:  “Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one’s life does not consist of possessions.”

    Never fear periods of darkness in life. They are the atrium to new phases of life, the threshold to new experience, the invitation to move on from where you are to where there is more for you to learn.

    The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister
