Today is the Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time. Were 26 July not a Sunday, we would remember Saints Anne & Joachim (1st century B.C.), the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary: Saints-link, Saint-link Alpha, & Saint-link Juliett; Wikipedia-link Alpha & Wikipedia-link Juliett.

There was an ice cream social after the eleven o'clock Mass, with ice cream & hot dogs being served in the pavilion while a smooth jazz band played in the background. I had a ball. 'Twas hot but pleasant enough in the shade of the pavilion, but out in the death rays of the Accursed Sun 'twas as hot as a skillet.
On Saturday, there is to be a fancy dress-up dinner & dance to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Monsignor Patrick R. Dunigan Assembly 510 (Knights of Columbus, 4th Degree). If you can wear a tuxedo without feeling a little bit like James Bond, you're not doing it right.
