Team Spiritual Care: Keep our Earthly Garden Clean

Sister Kateri Theriault

Monday, April 22EASTER WEEKDAY; EARTH DAY


“Whose garden was this? / It must have been lovely. / Did it have flowers? / I’ve seen pictures of flowers, / And I’d love to have smelled one. / Ah! Tell me again, I need to know: / The forest had trees, the meadows were green, / The oceans were blue and birds really flew, / Can you swear that was true?” Folksinger Tom Paxton wrote these lyrics for the first Earth Day, 43 years ago, and they were made popular by John Denver. Do those times and names sound merely nostalgic? Do the words sound simplistic? Sentimental? Old-fashioned? On the contrary, they are as urgent as “love one another,” “love your neighbor as yourself,” and “follow me.”

TODAY’S READINGS: Acts 11:1-18; John 10:1-10 (first choice) (279)
“Whoever enters through me will be saved, and will come in and go out and find pasture.”

Virtual Team Brainstorm: Brain Teaser Update!


We are up to 20 members now with the addition of our other 2 Franciscan Center receptionists:  Welcome Peggy Smith & Robin Shellabarger!

What a gorgeous sunny morning!  This week’s brain teaser is in honor of all the flowers that are starting to bloom on our beautiful campus.  I are going to test your green thumb & see if you can guess what the following flowers are!  Each of the clues make up a type of flower, for example "small container + to allow" would be "vial + let", or "violet."

Can you figure out these five?

1. an implement + flesh around mouth
2. foppish + a large carnivorous wildcat
3. to wed + a soft yellow element
4. a false statement + be deficient in
5. indicates an alternative + child

Answers are below…good luck & Happy Spring!

Team Volunteers: Walk MS Invitation

What if we could connect every person living with MS? Every person who cares about someone with MS. Every family affected by it. Everyone who has seen what this disease can do to people. What if we could come together, even one day a year, to show the power of our connections? At Walk MS, our connections become more powerful than the connections MS destroys.
When you participate in Walk MS, the funds you raise give hope to the more than 7,000 people living with MS in our community. The dollars raised support life-changing programs and cutting-edge research. We’ve been walking since 1988 and have raised more than $10 million dollars to help support people living with MS.

If you are interested in walking with the St. Leonard team and/or making a donation please contact Dawn Arrowood, (937) 439-7125 or Kelsey Swartzel (937) 439-7147 for more information.  You can register online at www.walkmsohiovalley.org.  Please register under the St. Leonard team.

Please make all checks payable to National MS Society.  Donations can be turned in to Kelsey Swartzel, Volunteer Supervisor.

Thank you!
