Tree Project update: thanks to Diane McClug in Plano I am looking into some possibilities.

November 4: we are planning a Sunday Mass of Remembrance, i.e., remembering family members & friends no longer with us, tying it in with the All Saints feast. More on the ritual later.  We are talking about putting pictures & candles on a table on the stage or just on the stage.  Other ideas are welcome.

Any adults or families interested in a spiritual growth program after Masses during the winter?  Jane Williams has offered to coordinate it.  I may even get to sit in occasionally.  J.S.

I am looking for someone who lives in the area of Parker & Ohio who would be willing to bring Marie Green to Sunday Mass.  She is now living at Sunrise Retirement.  J.S.

See you Sunday.

Community Activities:  

ROMEO MEET: Friday, February 24, Jason's Deli, Collin Creek Mall, west side of Central, 1:00.  Welcome all wakos,  you will fit right in.  

JULIET LUNCHEON, (aka.,just us ladies into eating together),      

Juliet’s Luncheon Ladies will meet Friday, March 3 at 1:00 P.M. at Ocean Seafood and Grill.  For all who have not been there the food is very good and reasonable.  It is a BYOB.  I thought this would be a good choice because it will be Lent and some of us do not eat meat on Fridays during Lent.  Ocean is at 3829 W. Spring Creek Pkwy., Plano, behind Chic-Fil-A which is on Coit Rd. (Spring Creek and Coit).  Please let me know if you can join us.  They do have other choices besides seafood.   Ron & Marilyn Ackerman [rmackerman5@gmail.com]
