RIP St. John of the Cross, Spanish mystic, died today 1591, today is his feast day.
"In the twilight of life, God will not judge us on our earthly possessions and human success, but rather on how much we have loved."
"Where there is no love, pour love in, and you will draw love out."

Just a reminder that your local library has more than just books! Many also have dvds, cds, video games, game systems, internet hot spots, streaming services, ebooks, audio books, park passes, museum passes, and so so much more! Maybe it's time for a visit!

Dear ones, may Thanksgiving (for all who observe it) be a time for cultivating a grateful heart, renewing and restoring healthy relationships, enjoying a meal with people who matter to us, and remembering those who are in need. It never is perfect but may we find love and joy in this day anyway! 🙏

Humble plug: I make rosaries (including Anglican) and many other prayer beads and sell them to raise money for my curacy churches. They range in price depending on materials, and I love working on special requests for people. See thread below for pictures, and send me a message if you're interested!
