1st Sunday Lent, February 22, 2026

ByRosemary

Genesis 2:  The LORD God formed man out of the clay of the ground and blew into his nostrils the breath of life, and so man became a living being.
Romans:  One man said no to God and put many people in the wrong; one man said yes to God and put many in the right.
Matthew 4:  “Get away, Satan! It is written: The Lord, your God, shall you worship and him alone shall you serve.”

 


For a soul to be fully developed, it must have developed a capacity for contemplative leisure, for thinking things through, for reflection and realization, for growth in understanding.  Reflection is the seedbed of artistry of any kind.
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister


From Lynda Fleming:

Once again, we would like to put together Easter treat bags for the guys at Souls Harbor. Donna Dinsmore is out of town for several months preparing for a new grandchild, so I will be coordinating the collection. Below is a list of the items that we’re hoping to include. If you would prefer to give a monetary donation, that would be wonderful! Please see me at church or send your contribution via Venmo or Zelle to 972-754-0823.
Socks
Toiletries (travel size)
Toothbrush and small toothpaste
Candy
Laundry detergent pods

Thanks, in advance, for your generosity and support!
