23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, September 6, 2026

Ezekiel 33:  Thus says the LORD: You, son of man, I have appointed watchman for the house of Israel; when you hear me say anything, you shall warn them for me.
Romans 13:  Love does no evil to the neighbor; hence, love is the fulfillment of the law.
Matthew 18:  For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.


It can often be far more difficult to identify the real questions we face than it is to find spurious answers to the superficial ones.

    They asked Duke Ellington how he learned to play such soulful
    music and he told them, “I merely took the energy it takes to pout and wrote some blues.” Point: It’s learning to let what’s in us out that is the key to becoming the fullness of the self.

    Opening night performance was hilarious. The energy and enthusiasm was
    phenomenal. Great entertainment for a summer evening.

    To the Cast and Crew of Noises Off,
    I just wanted to take a moment and congratulate you all on a wonderful
    production. We were able to attend the opening night performance and can not
    tell you how much we loved the entire show. The comedy came in many forms
    and was constant throughout all three acts. I honestly can not even imagine
    how exhausted you all must be after each performance! In the three years
    that Teatro delle Muse has been the resident company of the ArtCentre
    Theatre I can't remember a production that generated so many belly laughs
    from the audience. I sat in the back row (as is a habit of mine, I enjoy
    watching the audience, reviewers and tech crew as much as I do the show) and
    never saw a moment of restlessness, nor watch checks or snoring from
    audience members. That is amazing! Be very proud of the work you have done.
    I am proud to know this show is a part of our theatre. Jamey, I can't wait
    to see your next production with TDM, wait productions. there's Grease,
    Rocky Horror Picture Show, A Christmas Show and of course Evening Star
    Rising. We are so glad to have you as a part of our company and we hope that
    you bring all the talent from Noises Off with you to other shows!

    The past is beautiful because one never realizes an emotion at the time.  It expands later, & thus we don't have complete emotions about the present, only about the past.
