Do you feel like you are being tossed in waves that could sink your boat? Life has dealt me more than one challenge. Staying positive and encouraging through the storms of life is difficult. One thing that has helped me is to stop, breath and sit. I’m not really in a boat during a terrible storm. I am here in […]
As director of a faith formation program, I enjoy sharing my newsletters. I also post resources each week on my web pages. This week’s inspiration is Walking in faith, a reason for hope. Our classes start on September 3 so we are getting prepared now. I really appreciate all of our volunteers who help to make this a dynamic and […]
Sometimes, we are looking for ways to inspire our kids. How can we make some real connections? Cooking and baking are one of my favorite pass times and ways to connect. We may have traditional foods for certain times of year or faith celebrations. I love to create. Food is comfort. Food is nourishment. Good food nourishes the soul, too! […]
This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad. Psalm 118:24 Where is Jesus? “They have taken the Lord from the tomb,and we don’t know where they put him.”So Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb… When Simon Peter arrived after him [other disciple],he went into the tomb and saw […]

R. Lord come and save us. Cf. ISAIAH 35:4 (Psalm 146) This is the one whom I sent—a PROPHET! John the Baptist has lived like a patient farmer awaiting “the precious fruit of the earth.” From the midst of the “hardship and patience” that he suffers in prison for being a prophet “who spoke in the name of the Lord,” […]
R. Justice shall flourish in his time, and fullness of peace for ever. Cf. Psalm 72:7 Is anyone listening?! As a parent, Catechist (teacher) or even friend, we can feel like we are John the Baptist! We are a voice crying out in the desert. Is anyone listening? Our message that Jesus is coming can get lost in the noise […]
Scripture focus for October 2, 2022 R. If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts. cf. Psalm 95:8 What’s a Parable? A parable is a story with a meaning. It has a purpose. Jesus wanted us to understand something better. And actually do something with it. It is one of the smallest of all seeds (only 2.5mm), but […]
Psalm Response: The Lord is kind and merciful. Ps 103:8 Last week, Jesus gave us words to live by, The ‘Beatitudes,’ or blessings. Today, Jesus reminds us to be compassionate and forgiving. Jesus continues to explain what he means and how we should live. We are so quick to judge others harshly. Would we want God to judge us that […]
