Dear Friends,

Again this week, we are called to struggle with and make our own the meaning behind, “becoming the body and blood,” “the bread” of Jesus for our world.

Come; ponder with us this week.

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Dear Friends,

Once again, we are called to consider how we can be “bread for our world.” It would seem that it is about “following in Jesus’ footsteps,” “imitating” his actions.

Come; be with us this week–ponder all that our brother Jesus is calling us to.

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Dear Friends,

We continue our walk with our brother, Jesus, contemplating Scriptures that challenge us to be “bread” for our world. And it truly is about “imitating him, not adoring him.”

Come; ponder all this with us!

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Dear Friends,

Approximately a dozen of us met last Saturday to remember Mary Magdala (The Tower) and all women in ministry–we enjoyed a pot-luck supper afterward! Thanks to everyone who was able to attend and make this possible.

Again this week and for several weeks in the future, we will be asked to consider, being “bread” for our world in the ways that we can–“doing what is ours to do,” as Francis of Assisi requested of his followers .

Come; ponder all this with us

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

• Mass on Saturday, July 20, 2024 at 4:30 P.M. followed by a pot-luck supper. If you haven’t yet signed up, but would still like to attend, there is still time!
• Remember the Eucharist of Equals , July 21, 2024 at 10 A.M. via Zoom–you do need to register to get the link, but that is easy to do. I sent out an email earlier this week with the “how to!” Remember that this Mass will run at the same time as the Eucharistic Congress (traditional Church event) in Indianapolis. Roman Catholic Women Priests will have a presence in Indianapolis this weekend to counter the exclusive, narrow message of the Eucharist displayed by the hierarchical Church men.
• Please never hesitate to call me, 507-429-3616 and if you don’t get me live, please leave a message and a number and I will get back to you as soon as I can, or email me at aaorcc2008@gmail.com if I can help in any way.

Dear Friends,

Even though our main focus of Saturday’s liturgy will be on Mary the Tower (Magdala), and women in ministry, we will this year stay with the regular weekend readings instead of using alternate ones in order that we can be more united with all that is happening this weekend in our Church.

Come; celebrate God’s call to ministry, inclusive of women, as well as men!

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy
