Father Marc’s Last Day

Well, not his last day but his last day here on the Rock, on Vashon being our priest. I think it will be seven years for him. And I think that I have been there three years with him. The high point was when he came over to bless Phil’s Camino way back when. Thank you Father Marc, you were a part of it all here at this outpost.

I’m pretty deep in the fog of of my chemo weekend. I expect it to be bad and here it is. Partly it is the side effect of the chemicals and partly this time

The best existing pic of the flower growing along the freeway.  Thinking of you Jennifer.

it is the aftermath of Jennifer’s death. I got it all wrapped together here at once. Your prayers of peace for us would be welcome.

OK, time to tidy up and get off to church. Hoping for swimmingly, although giddy would due just fine. Love you all, Felipe.

  1. Remember the “deal”, Amigo. I’m praying for you. You’re carrying a heavy load. It’s easier when you let somebody help. Simon of Cyrene helped Jesus. Even if he did it under duress, he still helped. I’m honored to give you a hand, or arm, or lift, or whatever it takes.

    My own favorite is: “hummingly” .

    1. Hummingly, yes, I’m seeing it. Nice work PFJ! Thank you for your encouraging words and backup. Felipe.

  2. Foot note: It’s always tough when we “lose” a priest we’ve really become fond of and attached to. We have several that fall in that category. Send them funny cards every once in a while to keep the attachment in tact. They love it. And pray for them. They’re men too, and need all the help we can give them.
