Rosemary's Blessing:

It is the second week of Advent.

As we hear about Isaiah’s beautiful dream of peace in the animal kingdom,

May we too have peace in our hearts

And share it with all we meet.

A Special Note from Cathy Bambanek 

My mom passed away Friday from congestive heart failure.  

Visitation is at 7:00PM-8 Tuesday, with a rosary at 8, more visitation until 9.  This is at Ted Dickey West on the George Bush Highway.

A funeral mass will be said at 10:30  Wednesday at St. Marks on 15th Street.  There will be a luncheon afterwards at the church and all are welcome to attend.  Then the cemetary at 1:30.  

I would love to have you come to any or all of them.

If you would like to bring something to the house, we need beer, wine, and appetizers to serve to relatives coming from out of town.  They will only be here Tues and Wed, so we do not need a lot of food.

My address is 2505 heather hill lane.

Thanks to all of you for being great friends.  Please pray for my family at this stressful time.

(Sorry, Cathy, I did not get this before publishing the Sunday blog.)

Cathy helping Harper, her granddaughter, light the Easter Candle.

Rosemary’s Blessing 

May God protect you

From silly fears and from bitter tears

From foolish fights and from sleepless nights

From excessive needs and from nasty deeds

From self-made hells and from all bad times.

Just in case you like to feed the ducks and pigeons…  Sign at the entrance to the community of Hilton Head Plantation.   The numerous man made lagoons often have a resident.  One stopped bike and walking traffic on a bike path I was using one nice winter afternoon.  They love to sun bathe.

During this Lenten season, may you …

Fast from criticism; feast on praise.
