Fr. Joe's Weekly Notes - 01/01/2017

Healthy and Happy 2017!!

Can you believe that another new year is here again?  For some people, 2016 was a year that was treasured and remembered; and for others, they want to forget because of sadness, sickness or losses in their lives.  But whatever your response is, it was time given to us by the Lord.  Each day is a treasure and a gift.  We take it for granted and presume it a lot.  We look forward to special events we are planning in 2017, but sometimes they come so fast and then they are gone.

Offer Thanks Each Day

Each day is a gift given to us by the Lord.  Make sure that you start your day with a thank you to the Lord for that day, and then offer the day back to Him as your offering to God.  It does not take long to do this, but it is important, and it will go a long way in your relationship with the Lord.

Happy New Year and thanks for all you do!
