Reminder for 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, November 7, 2021

Deuteronomy 8:  He therefore let you be afflicted with hunger, and then fed you with manna, a food unknown to you and your fathers, in order to show you that not by bread alone does one live, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of the LORD.
1 Corinthians 10:  The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ?  The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?
John 6:  Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me.

 

Serenity requires an honest admixture of equality and respect for those who hold opposite positions from our own.
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister

Thanks again for all the Food that came in Sunday!

This Sunday: special double baptism (son & dad)

True?    I believe there is an important distinction to be made between religion and spirituality. Religion I take to be concerned with belief in the claims to salvation of one faith tradition or another–an aspect of which is acceptance of some form of meta-physical or philosophical reality, including perhaps an idea of heaven or hell. Connected with this are religious teachings or dogma, ritual, prayers and so on. Spirituality I take to be concerned with those qualities of the human spirit–such as love and compassion, patience, tolerance, forgiveness, contentment, a sense of responsibility, a sense of harmony, which bring happiness to both self and others.
