Reflection from Our Co-Pastors
July 7, 2022
Made From Bone, by Mark Nepo from reduced to joy
When I can be the truth,
It grows more and more clear
When it is necessary to tell the truth.
That is, when I have access to the place
Within me that is lighted, I don’t have
To speak heatedly I can just give away
Warmth. When I am still enough to brush
Quietly with eternity, I don’t have to
Speak of God, I can just offer peace
To those around me.

A tree grows so it can convey wind.
It is not the wind. And a person grows
In order to convey spirit.
They say that animals recharge
Their innocence each time they hoof
The earth. And we are reborn
Each time we touch what matters.

Foot Washing Ministry
The Foot Washing Ministry was created for our community to support each other and match ‘time and talent’ with need.
A senior member of Mary of Magdala is in need of rides to and from church or assistance with Zoom if we are not gathering in the Sanctuary. She lives in southeast Loveland so is best if we have a few members share in this request. She also misses dinner so providing food after Mass is most welcome.
If you could assist with this request with a once a month or even one time would be incredibly helpful. Please contact Reverend Jane Reina at this email or via the office phone at 970-493-9536.
