Hi, Jan.  Where is that Crazy Man, Sir Charlie?

 

True?

 

A scholar was bragging to a boatman about all the knowledge he had acquired. “Can you swim?” the boatman asked. “No,” the scholar replied…. “Then all of your knowledge is wasted,” replied the boatman, “because the boat is sinking.”

Zen story

    Advent Opportunities

    1.  December 11, 2022 We are collecting sweatshirts and hoodies for the men at Soul's Harbor.

    2.  From Lynda Fleming:

    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 text me at 972-754-0823. I need the gifts by December 12th.  I’ll be at church next week, if you’d like to bring them to me then.
     
    Thanks, in advance, for your thoughtfulness and generosity!

    Rosemary's Blessing:  

     

    Sometimes readings in Advent focus mainly on repentance and on waiting for the Savior and Messiah to redeem us from our sins.  Yet, the Jewish people of the Hebrew Scriptures and the early Christians had much broader expectations.  The Savior is the one who comforts and heals us, rescues and unbinds us, enlightens us and lifts us up as well as wipes away our sins.  The earthly life of Jesus was filled with his healing and compassionate acts; his treating outcasts and women with inclusivity, dignity and love; his breaking down cultural, religious and social walls that separate people; and his not only forgiving sinners, but also eating with them.   This is what Jesus wants to do for us.  Advent is a time of becoming more whole, a time of becoming all we want to be and all God wants us to be.
