“First of all, then, I ask that supplication, prayers, petitions be offered for everyone for kings and for all in authority that we may lead a quiet tranquil life in all devotion and dignity. This is good and pleasing to God our saviour,” 1 Timothy 2:1-3Time to move on and do your part in goodness and faithfulness. One person cannot change a society…do your part in real works.
Wife, mother, blogger, Catholic ministry. I love to garden even when it goes wrong. Same with writing (and we know it can go wrong.) Believing that God is present in all of it.
Yesterday…or maybe Thursday the social media outlets that I subscribe to blew up with the unveiling of an interview from Pope Francis. A well-coordinated interview with several Jesuit Media sources that had been kept secret for a while. I have only been able to read the highlights of this interview thanks to James Martin SJ…
If you have a minute, vote for our sensible, kind and shameless friend to say the Benediction at the Inauguration. We could really use a unified blessing!https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/ask-father-james-martin-sj-new-york-lead-inauguration-benediction/BGBNz8l4

The wine, which my mother-in- law accidently spilled went all over my daughter’s home-made butter lamb. The symbolism would have been enough there but…
Less Grievance/More Holiness It has been a tough time at my work. With my pastor leaving everything is uncertain and in flux. Since it is Lent, there is little rest as I try to maintain the online presence and the programs activities. I do this while being part time (ha!!). It is my youngest daughters’…
Happy Valentines day! As you can see it is one of my favorite days! Why? Because all you need is love and I think that this video expresses the joy of loving. It all begins with love! Hope you are having a great day and remember to share a little love. Look for someone who…
“Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted the house. But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock. Mt. 7:24-25 My father in…

I am not sure why or how that posted 3 times!
When I read this post, I thought of the vision of our parish: To be faithful servants walking God’s talk.
I have also been wondering how Melena from your parish is doing – just generally as I don’t want to ask you to divulge private information. Thanks.

Lynda, I think Melena is recovering but it was a severe head injury so there is a lot that goes with that. WE continue to pray for her and her family down this long road. Thank you for asking and for being so present in her need to be remembered. You are so kind.
By the way, I love your parish mission, it is straight to the point and easy focus in on. Thanks for sharing it!
