Morning
Early start for me today
Off to Loganville on a drop-off turnaround, then my usual workshop run, a midwife clinic run, then a run to Sparta to pick up “the Die Bote”, back to take workshop home, back to Loganville to pick up what I dropped off, and finally home.
Had I known ahead, I would have attended the Mass & Lunch in Hillsboro for Val. I miss her but remember her in her art. My all-time favorite is “Jesus in the Boat.” She didn’t title it that, but that’s what I see every time I look at it. Which led me to Padre Pio “…stay in the boat in which our Lord has placed you, and let the storm come. You will not perish. It appears to you that Jesus is sleeping, but let it be so. Don’t you know that if he sleeps, his heart vigilantly watches over you? Let him sleep, but at the right time, he will awaken to restore your calm.” (Her title was “Fallen”)
How’s Lent going for you? I found a small pamphlet with powerful information. “The Real Presence” by Fr. James B. Buckley FSSP is full of what Catholics teach about the Eucharist. I wish I could remember where I picked it up. Fraternity Publications should have it.
Best get a move on.
Know you are prayed for.
