 She had a bad week last week and they finally diagnosed her with pneumonia.She's at Good Sam. She's in good spirits and since she has such a big family has had lots of visitors. She should be there until  Tuesday  or maybe  Wednesday . After that she will probably go to West Hills to get her strength back.  She would appreciate prayers.

My brothers, even in this time of a lack of leadership, decisions must be made and paperwork must be completed.  Since we no longer have access to the monthly reports Daniel was doing, we need information, and we need information soon, about the charitable activities you are interested in, and your opinions of the leadership resources we should have available to us.  Please fill out this survey by Wednesday, January 24th, to allow Phil and Ted time to complete the Fraternal Survey, Form 1728 by the end of the month. The survey is on SurveyMonkey, and should require no more than 15 minutes of your time.   Click on the link to fill out your survey for this year.

Father Longenecker wrote an interesting article today in the "other NCR", the National Catholic Register, an online-and print newspaper put out by EWTN.  In it he takes a sharp look at how men have become disengaged from their families and demotivated to participate  in family and Church life.  It is very worth your time to read.
