Gratitude can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. It makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. Melody Beattie

               With gratitude for the musical gifts of Sophie Webb.

This past Sunday, Sophie and Connie performed the Bach/Gounod arrangement

of "Ave Maria." Their beautiful rendition was balm for our souls.


I am so grateful for the many hands from St. Brendan who made the service on

July 12 for my wife Susan Wade so special. I hold you all in my heart. Susan loved St. Brendan, and you, all of you, showed how much you loved her. I know she was with us in spirit and beaming with her beautiful smile.

With gratitude for the St. Brendan Memorial Garden, which received some of Susan Wade's ashes following her service last Saturday. The Garden was a balm for our souls that day. Our thanks to James Boster for creating the cross and to the crew of parishioners who moved and prepared the site.
