Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

My Companions: We continue to pray for Dan, that the bone marrow transplant takes and he can avoid infection.  Karen gives us updates and they're fighting a good fight.  Also, my Nephew, Steve Lay, broke his leg and had to have surgery.  Help him heal quickly and fully so he can attend the police academy. Let's pray for Dad's friend, Lou Hall who died last Friday and for all our loved ones who have gone before us.

Birthdays: Larry Lay (7/14). Anniversaries: Birdene DeBoar (7/12 d. '07), Megan & Cullen Stevens (7/14).

Keeping in-touch: Marge and I snuck-away again to RMNP and camped Thursday evening.  We climbed to Emerald Lake and were reminded of achy old joints and extra pounds!!  We met new people and enjoyed the wonderful beauty of the Park.  And it was a good break from the 90s and 100s temps.  Matt had some visitors and we have many thanks to Mark Ross for fixing the electrical problem of one Sarah's car.

The Readings: Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Comments on the Readings: Fr. Foley, "Real hospitality means a two-way relationship in which host and guest open to each other and become present to one another in various ways."
My comments: I hope we can all welcome everyone we encounter and appreciate the gifts and ministries we each provide.

May the peace of Christ be with each of you,

John
