Rosemary's Blessing:

Loving God, through the gift of our fathers, you reveal your wisdom, love and care.

Continue to bless and guide these holy men you have given to us in our lives.

Support them in their call to lead holy lives of faithfulness, respect and integrity.

May their witness of faith and love shine from them and on their children and families giving hope and encouragement to all.

Bless them for all the ways they lift their children to achieve their dreams. 

Bless them for their sacrifice, their forgiveness and their guidance.

Bless grandfathers, uncles, brothers, cousins, teachers and coaches who have shown us love and support.

For those fathers who have lost a child or spouse, give them your loving touch of healing consoling them with your gentle care.

For those fathers who have gone before us, bring them to your eternal banquet of joy and peace; bring them the fullness of union with you and communion with us as we remember their love for us. Amen.

Happy Father’s Day

  • Help wanted and available

    Calling all nurses! We need more help at CCAC, please.

    From Ron Kovatis: We are in the homestretch for the Operation ACT Clean-up on March 31. Please let me know as soon as possible if you will be participating in the clean-up and the number of additional volunteers and their names, if possible, that you plan to bring to the event. We need to have a count of volunteers to speed the registration process and to order supplies and food. Thanks for your help. Hope to see you on the 31st. Download the flyer.

    From Jane Drake: My daughter, Ellen, is looking for employment this summer. She is 14 and has done babysitting for three families, so she has references. She will baby-sit up to two little ones. Depending on where the family is located, I could possibly drop her off or pick her up on my way to/from work in Plano. Best situation would be something 3-5 days a week. (Money is going into her college fund – she just doesn’t know it!) email: Jane.Drake@EDS.com, phone: 972-604-0401.

    From Andre Davidson: I would like to tell you about a special family and particularly about a precious little girl named Sadie Davidson. Sadie was recently diagnosed with Neuroblastoma cancer at the tender age of 4 months old. Her Mom and Dad, Jennifer and Jason Davidson, along with her big brother Quinn and sister Delaney have been at her side since the battle began. Since her diagnosis, Sadie has been in and out of Cook Children’s Hospital in Fort Worth, Texas receiving treatment and beginning her aggressive chemotherapy program to battle her disease.

    As you might imagine, the emotional stress and strain of dealing with such an illness is traumatic not to mention the financial issues that arise. Throughout this journey the family has received an outpouring of love, support and prayer from friends and family. The Davidson family has a strong faith in God and His love for them and their precious little baby Sadie…it is this FAITH that has sustained them. This family needs a miracle and they are praying for one. While waiting for Sadie’s miracle, there are medical bills and other living expenses that need to be paid.

    Now we have an opportunity to help them too. I am playing golf in an upcoming event benefiting The Sadie Davidson Cancer Fund called "Swing for Sadie" which will be held on Monday April 23, 2007 at Eldorado Country Club in McKinney, Texas. This event is a Golf & Tennis Marathon and I will be playing 100 holes of golf in one day! I am asking you to sponsor me for every hole of golf that I play. (For example, if you would like to sponsor me at $1.00 per hole…your donation would be for a flat amount of $100). Any amount small or large will help me raise funds for Sadie.

    This isn’t a typical fundraiser that has high costs and small results. I hope that you’ll be able to contribute some amount so as to keep me motivated when I approach my 70th or 80th hole! All contributions must be received on or before 04/23/2007 in order to count for this event. A fund for the family has been set up through Christ United Methodist Church in Plano, Texas. All of your donations are tax-deductible. Any amount that you would be willing to contribute would be greatly appreciated. To donate securely online by Visa, MasterCard, American Express or online check, just click on the following link: https://www.miraclegolfconcepts.com/donate.php?p=221&e=51

    Again, thanks for your consideration, support and most of all your generosity. Your kindness will not be forgotten.

  • Reminder for the 34th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Christ the King Sunday, November 26, 2023

    Ezekiel 34: Thus says the Lord God: From now on, I myself am the shepherd.  As shepherds go after their flocks when they get scattered, I’m going after my sheep.   I’ll rescue them from all the places they’ve been scattered. 

    James:  You can no more show me your works apart from your faith, than I can show you my faith apart from my works.  Faith and works, works and faith—they fit together hand in glove.

    Luke 17: Whenever you did one of these things to the least of my sisters and brothers—that was me.  You did it to me.
