ABC Mercy
Today at church the priest talked about Divine Mercy Sunday. He said to help remember what to do, use the ABC’s. A – ask God for His Mercy. He wants to shower His love and mercy on us, but we do need to ask. B – be merciful to others. If we want to receive […]
Caption Phone
My mom has a very hard time hearing conversations on the telephone. A while back, the audiologist said that she could get a phone that has captions on it so she could read the words that are being said by the caller. We looked into it, and had the phone set up yesterday. We waited […]

Influencing Lives
Lent is over and Easter has arrived. My parents, sister, and I went to the early Mass. We were grateful that we arrived in plenty of time to get seats. Evidently after the church filled up, they seated the overflow crowd in the lower level where there was a live feed set up. I really […]
