23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, September 7, 2025
Note: We are testing a new system for the blog. You should have received this post previously.
Wisdom 9: Who can know God’s counsel, or who can conceive what the LORD intends? For the deliberations of mortals are timid, and unsure are our plans.
Philemon: Perhaps this is why he was away from you for a while, that you might have him back forever, no longer as a slave but more than a slave, a brother, beloved especially to me, but even more so to you, as a man and in the Lord.
Luke 14: Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.

Rosemary’s Blessing:
Loving God…
Give us hearts
where all may enter in,
ears to hear your call,

voices to sing your praise
and soul enough
to recognize You
