[Parish] Summer BBQ

[Malcolm Young]

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

 

Tomorrow night (Wednesday June 16) from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. we'll be having our first parish barbecue.  Thank God for this gift that God gives us, the gift of each other.

 

I look forward to seeing you there and talking with you about John Buenz’s observations about the church.  Would anyone be interested in examining how we might continue this conversation?

 

The fog is rolling in.  I hope you are somewhere quiet…

 

Love,

 

Malcolm

 

 

Somehow this word from Tolstoy seems appropriate to our life together right now:

 

Life is a place of service, and in that service one has to suffer a great deal that is hard to bear, but more often to experience a great deal of joy.  But that joy can be real only if people look upon their life as a service, and have a definite object in life outside themselves and their personal happiness."

Leo Tolstoy (1828 - 1910)
