Our thoughts and prayers are with you Judy and Tina!
Many of you have asked how Judy and Tina's family are doing with the passing away of their father this week. The family has had a lot of gatherings to plan "Dad's" funeral. They have also enjoyed family gatherings focused on feasting and good memories. The funeral will be Saturday Feb. 18th at 1:00. The location will be at the parent's church in Tigard (address to follow.) There also will be a Rosary the night before.
The picture: Toni Puckett "took" Judy's door wreath and re-did it (and returned it) with wonderful fresh flowers! Good thing Judy didn't call the cops when she saw it missing!
Hi ladies! I wanted to let you know that when I invited all to the chapel to pray the rosary for priests in Dec., I meant to do that once a month. Jan went by too fast! I am going to do it again tomorow after bible study (well, around 11:50ish, whenever we get over there), the Mysteries of Light. The meditations are so beautiful & I hope you can join me! There is a club called the Serra Club that is a ministry to support priests & seminarians that I am going to attend a meeting Feb. 15th after bible study (a lunch) if anyone wants to join me.
What a beautiful lunch today! I wanted to share a prayer we didn't have time to read:
"Lord, please help me to give gifts that will glorify You this year. Gifts of joy and love, presents that will fill someone's heart & gifts that will remain forever. Lord, empower me to give a forever gift to someone who is in need of it. A gift they can take to heaven with them: a bit of wisdom that comes from You, a word that gives life and encouragement, a smile, a hug, a prayer. Gifts of hope & healing like Jesus gave - gifts of compassion and love that will help someone; maybe a gift of forgiveness, patience, understanding. Lord, only You can breathe Your Holy Spirit into me to help me be the gift You want me to be for others this Christmas and New Year. Amen.
Hi Ladies,
I'll be bringing fresh frozen (and free!) packages of ground venison to Bible Study next Wednesday for anyone who would like some. It makes great chili!
Thank you all for the beautiful card and well wishes. I am on the mend from my back surgery and doing really well. I'm looking forward to seeing you all at Bible Study in the Fall! Take care.
