Lucy: You mentioned people sending private messages to you. It is good to check them regularly. Sometimes we miss one or two. Have you checked them lately?

Today ,I drove by St Judes Mission an noticed the unkeep look. The Beautifull Azalea bushes are dying The weeds are growing , The hard work that Ted ,landscaping completed just last year looks
untended., uncared for. I don't know if the recent rain will bring some of it back. I wanted to stop and care for it but I know i'm not permitted

Not that I haven't felt bad about this situation before, having kept up with this thread, but Lucy's last post is especially sad to hear for me, most especially that last line. It's a truly horrible situation...my prayers for you and your parish continue. Please take up the recommendations some have made of keeping the group together through praying together at home and stuff like that. God bless.

Lucy,
This sounds so difficult for you. I think if it helps you to 'stop and care for it' then just do it. I would probably do the same. It was a building that provided much for the people that belonged there for so many years.
Keep praying, and we will keep praying for you, too. :-(

I was thinking of faxing either Bishop Pataki or Fa, Basil , who closed the church a message of how bad the flowers and ground look and tell him it should be taking care of, either give permission to us take care it or send someone to take care of it.
I am truly up set this church belongs to the Lord and it shood not be disguarded like an old shoe. We were disguared the Chuech and grounds Should not be disguarded.

Lucy: When checking for "private messages" from this forum, check under your profile listed as "my profile" on the top of the page. That is where they will come in. It is a bit different from regular e-mail. Hope this helps.
