The Despair
Holy Saturday, the final day of the Triduum. Jesus lies in a tomb wrapped in linen cloth. A large stone is rolled in front of the opening and sealed for good measure. This morning as I thought about that first Holy Saturday I was imagining the despair the disciples may have felt. Their Lord, the…

Father Forgive Them
Today is the second day of the Triduum, Good Friday. The day that Jesus fulfilled the scripture, having completed all that he was asked to do. Last year in this little blog I shared my thoughts about Good Friday, this most solemn day. I reshare that blog here as I truly don’t believe there is…

The Triduum
The final days of Jesus’ life, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday, the most solemn days of our Christian life. Today, we begin that final walk, the journey to the Cross—the Triduum, the three final days of Jesus’ life. The Maundy Thursday service has always been meaningful to me. During this service, we will…

The Walk Continues
Wednesday of Holy Week. This was the day that Mary anointed Jesus’ feet with expensive perfume. It was also the day that Judas made the decision that he would betray Jesus. In this little blog, I simply share a prayer in preparation for the next days ahead, as we remember the final walk He made…

Short Little Life Unites a World
Yesterday, a friend shared with me a story about a young family she knows. I’m going to try to share this story being respectful of this young family and yet sharing the incredible love of Christ that worked through the middle of it all. As I listened to the story of this family’s little girl,…

Some people are at the lowest points of their lives, homes gone, loved ones missing or killed, memories swept away. Sometimes a hot meal and a clean…

A Weekend of Support
Today is a busy day and one that provides so many opportunities to help others. Our church is holding one of its big community sales. Our thrift store, just recently restored from hurricane Milton, has been feverishly collecting “gently used” items from parishioners and other donors over the past weeks. Baby cribs to jewelry, housewares…

Today is the Day
It really is you know. Today is the day for…whatever God wants you to do. This morning as I was thinking about this little blog and asking for guidance on what to share I realized that today is another new day. Father made us to rise to see another sunrise. He will bring people into…

Be Silent
A friend of mine posted something on social media yesterday that caught my attention. I have to admit, I don’t go there much. I post this little blog each morning, wish friends happy birthdays, and pop in later in the evening, usually looking for sunset pictures 🙂 . However, yesterday, her post made me stop…

Working Through Us
This morning, I woke up with a song in my head. I had been hearing it all night, I’m not sure what that was about. Maybe Father is subtly telling me something through this melody. I definitely think He uses the gift of song to communicate with His children. He has some pretty talented kids,…
