St. John the Baptist Montello, WI

Yesterday, we attended 10am Mass here. We were greeted by many on the way in.

The visiting priest informed us of his village in India.

The Rosary was said before mass in a reverent, beautiful way by someone whose voice inflections told you they had talked with our Lady many times previous.

The fall bazaar was in its 2 day. Snagged a couple awesome items.

Everyone friendly & welcoming.

The Baptist would have liked this church. No frill, no fuss, the only focus on the altar…the body of Christ.

Keep your eyes on Jesus.

My time here on Buffalo Lake comes to an end this morning.  This time with my friend S has been so relaxing.  Mass at the local Catholic church and time at the National Shrine of St. Philomena uplifting.  I am blessed and have been blessed to be able to spend a weekend like this with other Catholic moms.  I smile as many of us are empty nest moms moving into our next stage of life, knowing full well the waters are uncharted.  Some things we always thought would be suddenly nowhere in the future.

I look to Our Lady and the stages in her life as a mother.  Most fraught with hard work and sadness. She kept going forward. Making her way, keeping her eyes on Jesus.  May that always be my choice as well… keeping my eyes on Jesus.

Know you are prayed for.
