Reminder for the 3rd Sunday of Easter, May 4, 2025

Acts 5:   So they left the presence of the Sanhedrin, rejoicing that they had been found worthy to suffer dishonor for the sake of the name.

Revelation 5:  "To the one who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor, glory and might, forever and ever."

John 21:  So he said to them, "Cast the net over the right side of the boat and you will find something."  So they cast it, and were not able to pull it in because of the number of fish.

    Senior Citizen Angel Tree
     
    As many of you know, I’m part of a lovely company called Caring Transitions that helps seniors downsize and relocate and conduct estate sales. Similar to the angel trees that you see in shopping malls for children, senior citizens also need our help to make their holidays brighter. If you’re interested in “sponsoring” a senior citizen or if you simply want to donate money and I’ll be happy to be your personal shopper, please contact me at lynda.fleming23@gmail.com. All gifts need to be dropped off to me by December 5th.
     
    Thanks, in advance, for your thoughtfulness and generosity!

  • The 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, January 25, 2026

    Isaiah 8: The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; upon those who dwelt in the land of gloom a light has shone. You have brought them abundant joy and great rejoicing, as they rejoice before you as at the harvest, as people make merry when dividing spoils.
    1 Corinthians 1: I urge you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree in what you say, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and in the same purpose.
    Matthew 4: … Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the way to the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles, the people who sit in darkness have seen a great light, on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death light has arisen.

     


    Failure is essential to being able to succeed. Learning to accept ourselves as we are is key to being able to be more than we are because then we are free to fail—which means, of course, that then we are free to try til we succeed.
    The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister
