6th Sunday of Ordinary Time, February 14, 2021

 

A note from Becky concerning the Thanksgiving Food Drive at Legacy.

 

We are short about 49 turkeys.  The give away is this Sunday.  She (Becky) will be in town until mid afternoon on Thursday.  If anyone would like to donate a turkey,  she can meet people at the school from Tuesday through Thursday and store any turkeys in the school's freezers.   She can also take money donations.

Isaiah 6: …for my house shall be called a house of prayer for  all peoples.

Romans 11: For the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable.

Matthew 15:  Then Jesus said to her in reply, "O woman, great is your faith!  Let it be done for you as you wish."

Romeos, Welcome!    Jason's Deli, 1:00, Friday. April 16.  Required: vaccines, mask for entrance & departure. 

 

 

All of you who attended Mass this past Sunday are welcomed this Sunday, circa 30 people.  Let me know if you cannot make it.

I want to remove the tables this week and get out the chairs.  I think the time is right.  Maybe even 10 more friends.

Rosemary's Blessing:  

I recently read a marvelous book, The Last Green Valley by Mark Sullivan.  It is the story of a young couple and 2 young sons making their way from the Ukraine westward, ahead of the advancing Russian army, towards the end of WWII.

At the end of the mother’s life many years later when she was 80+ years old a friend asked the woman, Adeline to describe the most important things she learned over the course of her long and remarkable life.

Adeline thought about that for a little while before saying, “Don’t chew on the bad things that happen to you, dear.  Try to see the beauty in every cruelty. It sets you free.  Forgive hurt if you want to heal a broken heart.  Try to be grateful for every setback or tragedy, because by living through them, you become stronger.  I see the hand of God in that.”

 

Acts of the Apostles 10, Peter proceeded to speak

Psalm 118,   This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad.

1 Corinthians 5, A little yeasts leaven all. 

John 20, On the first day of the week, Mary Magdalen  came to the tomb early in the morning.

 

Happy Easter, Everybody!

 

Thanks……

Rosemary's Blessing:

 

Risen Jesus, help us to be human expressions of the God you proclaimed: a God who is gracious and merciful, never gets angry and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.

May we know deeply God's great love for us, and like God, lean toward those suffering, oppressed and poor.

 

Adapted from A Reflection and Prayer for Easter by S. Jean Amore, CSJ

 

 

 

Nehemiah 8:   Today is holy to the Lord your God.

1 Corinthians 12:   As a body is one though it has many parts, and all the parts of the body, though many, are one body, so also Christ.

Luke 1:  Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing.

 

 

 

Looking and feeling better.

 

Thanks……

Rosemary's Blessing:  

Oh God of humor enable us to laugh at your mischievous plans. 

Life can become serious during these cold winter months, and our hearts can become heavy and burdened with responsibilities, decisions and trying to keep everyone happy. 

Let us look for the funny things that happen, the unexpected surprise that catches us off-guard, along with the incongruences that we encounter. 

Smile, snicker, giggle, give a belly laugh, and spontaneously guffaw. 

You will be amazed at how God works through laughter.

Sr. Mary Elizabeth Schweiger
