    Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

     

    Lord

    Enlighten what’s dark in me,

    Strengthen what’s weak in me,

    Mend what’s broken in me,

    Bind what’s bruised in me,

    Heal what’s sick in me,

    And lastly,

    Revive whatever peace and love

    Has died in me.

    Amen.

    Rosemary's Blessing of the Week.

    Life is not a journey to the grave

    With the intention of arriving safely

    In a pretty and well preserved body,

    But rather to skid in broadside,

    Thoroughly used up,

    Totally worn out,

    And loudly proclaiming

    —WOW—What a Ride!

    Wisdom 12:  And you taught your people, by these deeds, that those who are just must be kind;
    and you gave your children good ground for hope that you would permit repentance for their sins.
    Romans 8:  The Spirit comes to the aid of our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes with inexpressible groanings.
    Matthew 13:  Jesus proposed another parable to the crowds, saying: “The kingdom of heaven may be likened to a man who sowed good seed in his field.  While everyone was asleep his enemy came and sowed weeds all through the wheat, and then went off.

    Good old friends, Don & Debbie with their daughter, Heather, Jeff, and the beautiful McKinley.  

     

    A special financial report from Grace, our board president:

    On behalf of John Stack Ministries I would like to present the financials for the first quarter of 2015.

     First we want to thank the community for their past and present generosity. We are so thank for all you do and contribute.

     The starting balance on January 1 was approximately 14,000.00 and ending March 31 with a balance of 12,000.00.  That being said we are running 2000.00 short for the first quarter.

    We have a reserve amount of 38,000.00 that we have available to tap into if our situation requires.

      Weekly expenses are approximately 1200.00 per week which includes rent, insurance, music and salary. Rosemary reports the weekly income in the weekly blog so the community can see our weekly deficits which can range from 200.00 to a 400.00 short fall each week.

     If you are able to contribute a small amount more each month we would greatly appreciate your help.  We will review our financials in 6 months and report our situation at that time.

     Thank you to the choir for the outstanding music, the family’s who attend, Kevin and Georgie and also to John Stack, John Cade, and Mike Carroll for their inspirational homilies, in making us think about our daily lives and wanting  to be better individuals. And to Rosemary for all you do that doesn’t get mentioned, as well as your endearing end of mass prayers!

    Thank you,  Grace

    Rosemary’s Blessing:

    Be the One

    Jesus, thank you for loving me so much.
    Help me to love others as you do.
    When someone is lonely, help me to be the one to be kind.
    When others are left out, help me to be the one to include them.
    When someone is sad, help me be the one to bring joy.
    Show me your face in every person I meet.
    Let me be the one to console You and my neighbor,
    with kindness, a smile, prayers and love.
    Give me courage to “be the one”
    who builds up the body of Christ today. Amen.
