In memory of those whose lives were lost and for those of us who are forever affected by the tragedy of 9-11-2001 these wise words from the Buddhist monk: Thich Nhat Hanh:

“The root of terrorism is misunderstanding, hatred, and violence. This root cannot be located by the military. Bombs and missiles cannot reach it, let alone destroy it. Only with the practice of deep listening and compassion can it be transformed and removed. We need a collective awakening to stop this course of self-destruction.”

 

Religious Ed classes are now forming.  Registration packets are available in the Religious Education and Parish offices as well as in the vestibules. Enroll early to guarantee your place!  For more information, call the Religious Ed office at 582-9266.  Classes begin Sunday Oct. 5, 2008

Knowing that we are never alone in this effort, let us call upon the presence of the Prince of Peace, God With Us, that we may receive and use His wisdom and grace to guide our lives toward willing the good for all God’s children – of every gender, race, creed, and nation throughout our world.

Wishing you God’s richest blessings, Fr. Kevin, O.S.A.
