Celebrations/Birthdays/Anniversaries Birthdays
Anniversaries From the Faith Enrichment Team:  Helene of the Gender Justice Team recommends:
"It's time for a Catholic ethic that sees sexuality as a gift, not a
curse."
When so many debates in the church involve sexual ethics, it's helpful to take a look at the history of such teaching and why it has been exclusively negative, says moral theologian Fr. James Keenan. Read more: https://www.ncronline.org/node/238066 Here is another article for Holy Thursday from the Gender Justice Team. Leveling theological rejections at people who are humbling themselves before God looks nothing like the example of Jesus. Maybe instead, the church can meet in shared vulnerability — like washing each other's feet.
