Mildred, the church gossip and self-appointed
arbiter
of the church's morals, kept sticking
her nose into other people's business.
Several residents were unappreciative
of her activities, but feared her
enough to maintain their silence made
a mistake, however, when she accused
George, a new member, of being an
alcoholic, after she saw his pickup
truck parked in front of the town's
only bar one afternoon. She commented
to George and others that everyone
seeing it there would know what he
was doing.
, a man of few words, stared at her
for a moment and then just walked
away. He didn't explain, defend, or
deny. He said nothing. Later that
evening, George quietly parked his
pickup in front of Mildred's house.......and
left it there all night.

Questions people ask
Q. Why
are the decades of the Rosary called
mysteries? For instance, what is mysterious
about the scourging of Jesus at the
pillar?
A. Since Jesus was
at once human and divine there is
an unseen, mysterious dimension to
every moment of his life. The scourging
of Jesus has depths of meaning far
beyond the lashes imposed on any poor
wrench in history. It is the Son of
God here, the innocent victim entering
into solidarity with all who suffer
the whips and lashes of outrageous
fortune. Jesus endured the tearing
of his flesh in atonement for sins
of the flesh. The fact that we refer
to the mysteries of the Rosary shows
that it is Jesus Christ who is at
the centre of that prayer.
LORD, MAY
YOUR SPIRIT BURN WITHIN ME
Lord, you burn like a flame within
us,
Flame of energy and inspiration,
Living flame of love.
Yet like a flame you can be quenched
by our pride,
Smothered by our selfish ways, by
our sins.
There are times we prefer other things,
When we prefer to live without
The glow of your love within,
The flame of your goodness shining
on us,
The light of your presence,
Times when we prefer
The ways of darkness.
Yet how can we live without your love,
Lord?
Help me to hold on to what is good.
Help me not to quench your Spirit.
May your Spirit burn within me.
