Ohio

Greetings from Minster, Ohio.

This is the only second time I have preached a Lenten Mission in Ohio. The last time was was in Girard, OH back in 1992 at St. Rose of Lima Parish. The Saturday and Sunday of the Mission was conjoined with a celebration of the Boy's Basketball Team from Girard High School that won the State Championship on that Saturday night. Well it is happening again. The Minster High School Girl's Basketball Team won the Division IV State Championship last night, and the whole town is awash in celebration.

Well, it is Laetare Sunday, a time for joy, and that joy in Redemption is mixed with a joyful village proud of their Basketball team.

That must be the ticket. If you want your High School in Ohio to win a State Championship, just invite me to preach the parish mission. (grin)

I don't know about basketball, but you sure helped our husband/wife team get out of a losing streak!!

Hugs,
Gabriela and Stefan

Yes, but how are you at helping VOLLEYBALL teams? ;-)

Hope Ohio was a wonderful prayerful time, and hope Whiting proves to be as well.
