No kids today, but still lots of work to do. I have to prepare the choir folders for tonight's rehearsal. I always manage to leave something out of someone's folder. The challenge for today is to make sure everything is there.

I also have chores from yesterday to finish up. I didn't get around to decluttering so that is on today's list - I will be tackling the floor of my closet. Then there is laundry to put away, a batch of candles to make, a batch of soap, maybe some cookie dough if there is time. But first I head for the treadmill for some prayer time and some inspirational reading. No better way to start the day.

Wednesday of the First week of Lent
Today the Church celebrates : St. Thomas Mary Fusco, Priest (1831-1891)
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 11:29-32.


While still more people gathered in the crowd, he said to them, "This generation is an evil generation; it seeks a sign, but no sign will be given it, except the sign of Jonah. Just as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. At the judgment the queen of the south will rise with the men of this generation and she will condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and there is something greater than Solomon here. At the judgment the men of Nineveh will arise with this generation and condemn it, because at the preaching of Jonah they repented, and there is something greater than Jonah here.
