Lent.....

A wonderful season of hard work and dedication to bettering yourself and truly learning what it means to be a Christian!

I pray that during these 40 days, God reminds us that Temptation in and of itself is not sin.
...and lead us not into temptation...
How we react to temptation could be!!
Love and Blessings to ALL,
Heidi

DRIVE THRU ASHES

My favorite story about ash Wednesday really happened!! Many years ago, we were supposed to be performing with the Patty Waszak Show for many people who had traveled a great distance by bus to come to Joliet to see her. Realizing that it was Ash Wednesday, and knowing we only had short time in between shows and dinner to possibly give the show-goers a chance to get their ashes, we frantically started making calls to MANY parishes to find out which church might be able to accommodate us. Finally after re-explaining our predicament each time , a Father from St. Mary's in Joliet said we do not have a mass time to fit your schedule, BUT if you come by on your way to your dinner, the deacon and I will come onto your bus and distribute ashes for your travelers. I was SO grateful, and so was everyone on the bus!! Many chose to have ashes, and those who didn't were so impressed with the priest for doing such a kind thing that the day turned out to be one of the highlights of their trip!! One woman commented, "I am not even Catholic, and I did not get ashes, but that priest gave all of us a blessing. How wonderful was that?" Happy ASH WEDNESDAY EVERYONE!! I hope the next 40 days will re-enlighten, and rejuvenate you!

May the LORD BLESS YOU!!!

I am sharing my favorite picture of prayer once again as this week I have told many people that I would pray for them. I have heard that children's prayers are answered first, if that is true, this little one should have a front row seat!!


Lord please Bless my Family, Friends, Students, Teachers, Residents, Staff, and Administrators 
in all that they need for without them  life would mean nothing!!

Blessings today and Always!!! 2.10.2013

OMG!!  I can not believe that today is the 10th of February 2013. 
When I was a child, I remember my parents saying, "...enjoy your childhood, have fun, it will go by so fast"
Yeah right. Like I really believed them.
 GUESS WHAT??  THEY WERE RIGHT!!!
It is going by even faster than I could have imagined. 
So I will pass on that same advice + 
MORE...

ANN LANDERS column was the first time I "heard" this....

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not 

boast, it is not proud.It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is

not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.It 

always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always 

perseveres.........

And now these three remain: faith

hope and love.

But the greatest of these is

love.

This was taken from the NIV (1984) Bible today.  Up until about 20 years ago, I thought that this tidbit  came from Ann Landers!!  Silly me!
 I wanted to share because I heard it again in church yesterday!!  



Happy Birthday Dad!
