God Bless Our Troops

Happy Halloween everyone! I've been getting ready for the little goblins. I am not handing out candy this year because candy has a way of disappearing - no matter how many times I buy it. This year, the gremlins are getting small cans of playdough, small boxes of crayons, a tiny bottle of bubbles, and a ghost stamp.

I've been sick the last couple of days so the program went out the window. No workouts - no nothing. This can too easily turn into a permanent side track. Today I feel much better so it's back on program for me - today! That being said, today is a scheduled non workout day because of Mass with the school kids.



Gospel

Friday of the Thirtieth Week in Ordinary Time
Lk 14:1-6
On a sabbath Jesus went to dine
at the home of one of the leading Pharisees,
and the people there were observing him carefully.
In front of him there was a man suffering from dropsy.
Jesus spoke to the scholars of the law and Pharisees in reply, asking,
“Is it lawful to cure on the sabbath or not?”
But they kept silent; so he took the man and,
after he had healed him, dismissed him.
Then he said to them
“Who among you, if your son or ox falls into a cistern,
would not immediately pull him out on the sabbath day?”
But they were unable to answer his question.


God bless the troops!
