Easter Sunday approaches and we hope to broadcast live.  The link will come via the blog.   Here's hoping we get it perfect, thanks to the enormous efforts put out by Mike and Becky.

Just in case you are looking for the most effective medicine.   No wonder John Cade is so healthy.

Rosemary's Blessing:

May you live a long life full of gladness and health,
With a pocket full of gold as the least of your wealth.
May the dreams you hold dearest be those which come true,
The kindness you spread keep returning to you.
May the friendships you make be those which endure,
And all of your grey clouds be small ones for sure.
And trusting in Him to Whom we all pray,
May a song fill your heart every step of the way.

During this Lenten season, may we …

• Fast from criticism, and feast on praise.
• Fast from self-pity, and feast on joy.
• Fast from ill-temper, and feast on peace.
• Fast from selfishness, and feast on service.
• Fast from fear, and feast on faith.

Rosemary's Blessing

What good did it do when you frowned?  Let me ask:

Did it help you at all to accomplish your task?

Did it lighten your burden or help you along?

Did the frown that you wore make a right out of wrong?

What good did it do to be grouchy today?

Did your surliness drive any trouble away?

Did you cover more ground than you usually do?

Because of the grouch that you carried with you?

If not, what’s the use of a grouch or a frown?

If it won’t smooth a path or a grim trouble down?

If it doesn’t assist you , it isn’t worth while:

Your work may be hard, but just do it and smile.

This guy, Noah, used to be a nice little guy who was one of my favorite altar boys at St. Marks in the great 10:30 Mass in the cafetorium.  He is still The Best.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

Loving God,

Enable us to grow in the Benedictine spirit

In ways that make us

Creative keepers of the human community,

Caring sisters and brothers to its wounded

And bringers of peace to a world in distress.
