"Worship, Blessings, Food, Fellowship and Fun-an evening with MMOJ" by Katy Zatsick, ARCWP

Members of Mary Mother of Jesus Inclusive Catholic community gathered for our regularly scheduled liturgy at 4PM on Sat in Sarasota, FL. Our liturgy was led by Theresa and Roman Rodriquez who provided our homily starter-leading to a blessed sharing on division (Luke 12:49-53) and hope in the gospel.  During the liturgy we all raised our hands and blessed married priest partners Carol Ann and Lee Breyer on their 44^th wedding anniversary.

We also blessed Silvia as she leaves our MMOJ community to study on a Fulbright scholarship in Sweden. After our liturgy 12 of us enjoyed a communal meal at a Sarasota restaurant to continue our fellowship.

"Mindy Simmons and the Hot Pockets"

To close off our evening we headed to Mindy our MMOJ music minister parent’s home for a wonderful time. Mindy and her trio the Hot Pockets performed songs that had us clapping our hands, smiling, laughing and slapping our foreheads, especially for Our favorite “Sweet Palmetto Pie” an ode to all things Florida including mosquitoes, fire ants and Palmetto bugs!  God has blessed us mightily at MMOJ, come join with us when you can.
