Small Steps to Stewardship:
FASTING AND FEASTING
Cindy Nau, Stewardship Director
Fr. Michael Greco’s mission was thought-provoking and spiritual. On Monday, he had readers share this beautiful reflection, which is perfect to carry us through the rest of our Lenten journey.
FAST from judging others;
FEAST on the Christ dwelling within them.
FAST from emphasis on differences;
FEAST on unity of all life.
FAST from apparent darkness;
FEAST on the reality of light.
FAST from thoughts of illness;
FEAST on the healing power of God.
FAST from words that pollute;
FEAST on the phrases that purify.
FAST from discontent;
FEAST on gratitude.
FAST from anger;
FEAST on patience.
FAST from pessimism:
FEAST on optimism.
FAST from worry;
FEAST on God’s guiding presence.
FAST from complaining;
FEAST on appreciation.
FAST from negatives;
FEAST on positives.
FAST from unrelenting pressures;
FEAST on unceasing prayer.
FAST from hostility;
FEAST on bringing peace.
FAST from bitterness:
FEAST on forgiveness.
FAST from anxiety.
FEAST on hope.
FAST from yourself.
FEAST on a silent heart.
(The author of this reflection is unknown, but
various versions can be found online.)

Hand-washing is easy to do and it’s one of the most effective ways to prevent
the spread of many types of infection and illness in your home.
When should you wash your hands?
Before, during and after preparing food
Before eating food
Before and after caring for someone sick
Before and after treating a cut or wound
After using the toilet
After changing diapers or cleaning up a child who has used the toilet
After blowing your nose, coughing or sneezing
After touching an animal, animal feed or waste
After touching the garbage
Wash your hands rubbing your lathered hands together with soap for at least 20 seconds.
(Hum Happy Birthday twice). Rinse your hands under running water and dry them
with a clean towel or air dry.
