Reminder for the 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time, July 20, 2025

ByRosemary

Genesis 18:  One of them said, "I will surely return to you about this time next year, and Sarah will then have a son."

Colossians 1:  It is he whom we proclaim, admonishing everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.

Luke 10:  "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things.  There is need of only one thing.  Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her."

 


Rainbow 1

Life is not one choice. It is a series of many choices. It is not one stage or phase or decision. It is many of them. And it is out of all those things that we become the fullness of ourselves.

The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister

I began competitively swimming at the age of 8 swam through out high school, attended competitions through UIK and YMCA, and was a UIL All American Swimmer.  In the YMCA, I set many records and was high point girl for my agre group multiple years  I attended swim camps for stroke perfection with Olympics medal winner, Jerry Heidenrich.  I have taught over 300+ children to swim, coached a swim team, and have consistentely been involved with aquatics in my life.   I have experience teaching children that are highly accelrated in the water, those who are learning disabled, and infants with their mothers..  I also have experience teaching adult non swimmers to swim laps and become comfortable in the water.
