Twenty-Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time

As the World Meeting of Family Concludes, recall these words of Pope Francis,
The perfect family doesnt exist, nor is there a perfect husband or a perfect wife, and
lets not talk about the perfect mother-in-law! Its just us sinners. A healthy family
life requires frequent use of three phrases: May I? Thank you and Im sorry and
never, never, never end the day without making peace.

Baylock, Joseph Benear, Leonard Hamilton, Betty Bartel, Jack Weigand, Lisa Gnap,
