"What can we do to accomplish the works of God?"

That is the timeless question asked in the Gospel today?

Is it not an irony that so many Christians seem not to know the answer to that question?

Vaccination rates are among the lowest in theBible Belt around Springfield MO.

How come?

These believers apparently find a conflict berween Science and Relgion.

And yet Jesus himself went about healing and surely must bless those who heal us today.

To be unvaccinated and carry about a hidden virus is to be anti social in the extreme.

And so we pray:

From Saint Bridget's Holy Well,

Peace and healing.

From Lourdes Holy Spring

peace and healing.

Frm Siloam's holy pool

Peace and Healing.

And God bless all caretakers who are wearied from the foolisiness of the unvaccinated.
