Today we remember Irene Cummings who passed on this day in 2017. May she rest in peace.
We also celebrate the Anniversary of the 2001 Baptism of Jason Cummings may he continue to walk with God.
St Celine gave birth to St Remigius at an advanced age. Father, when I am deterred by signs of aging, remind me of Your power working through me. We have very few details about the life of this saint who is best known as the mother of St. Remigius, Bishop of Rheims at the time of the conversion of the people of Gaul under Clovis. St. Celine miraculously gave birth to St. Remigius when she was already at an advanced age. Immediately after giving birth, about 438, she also gave sight to the hermit Montanus who had three times foretold the birth of the saintly Bishop. After a holy life filled with good works and assiduous prayer, this saintly woman attained the rewards of heaven about the year 458. She was buried near Lyons, probably at Cerny, where she had lived. Unfortunately her relics were destroyed during the French Revolution.

ask for what is sufficient for today, not for tomorrow. Focus on today, trust for tomorrow. Accept from God’s hands day to day whatever is necessary.
Scripture Reading for Day 21 of Overcoming Fear
Deuteronomy 28:9 The LORD will establish you as a holy people, as he swore to you,h if you keep the commandments of the LORD, your God, and walk in his ways.
1 John 4:17-18 In this is love brought to perfection among us, that we have confidence on the day of judgment because as he is, so are we in this world.i 18 There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear because fear has to do with punishment, and so one who fears is not yet perfect in love.
Looking for: Dot Matrix continuous feed printer, Yup, the old kind with the perforation edged paper. I have paper, need printer.
•Last auction of the season at the Produce building. Big consignment sale. The donuts will be there early.
•The SUV is back in shop to figure out a vibration that showed up after the new injectors were put in. Hopefully it won’t take too long to find and put right. Meanwhile, the Subaru has become my ride… I hate it! Too low to the ground and too confining. It was not made for long legs.
•DS#4 made it to his next destination. I hope he finds a good church and uses it.
•DS#3 could use a few prayers. He’s in a situation of his own making and continues to believe it is not his fault. “CLARITY of actions” is what is needed. I don’t think he is doing any soul searching and appears to spend most of his time in the woe is me mode.
Know you are prayed for.
