  1.   Highly recommended: The Open Window of Dallas is bringing to Dallas Francis Vanderwall, a biblical scholar and great presenter.  He is a long time friend and former Jesuit.  He will join us for Mass on Sunday, Sept. 29, but will share his insights into the Bible on Saturday, the 28th.  You will find it a fascinating and amusing Saturday.  Welcome.

 3.  The Women's Lunch Group on Thursdays begins again in September.    For info talk with Carol or Bernadette.  

4.  Christmas Concert at the Meyerson: believe it or not, it is time to buy our group tickets.  We will have a sign up sheet Sunday and Rosemary will begin talks with her rep at the Meyerson.  Included will be a visit to the Rectory for wine & cheese and a ride through Highland Park to see the best lights.  

Connected with this, a plan is developing to visit the Christmas lights in Hightland Park on bikes one evening, a common event.  We have our guide, Chris Phipps, who lives there, and the old geezer can second, since this is his old neighborhood.  Get your bike lights polished.

See you this Sunday, June 8 

J.S.

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
