“Saying Hi to the People of Long Ago”

Saying Hi to the People of Long Ago –

And to the people of here and now.

“But Jesus answered them, ‘You are wrong, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. And as for the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was said to you by God: ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not God of the dead, but of the living.’ And when the crowd heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.” -Matthew 22: 29-33. ESV Study Bible.

                I took another walk to Sweet Avenue today – April 9th, 2026. The Lord is changing me. I was shy and quiet as a young boy. Now I want to talk to the people I meet on my walks. And I wave a thank you to the drivers of cars as they stop for this older guy crossing at intersections. And lately, I’m going even further than that – I say Hi quietly to the people who used to inhabit the houses I pass – in loving memory of them. I said Hi to Jennifer’s sister, Angela. She lived in a house at the corner of Elm and Dulude. And right across the street was Bruno Camilucci’s Store where we went after Mass on Sunday mornings to buy the Sunday papers and a few other things for Sunday dinner. I said Hi to Mr. Camilucci, too.  And as I crossed the street I looked down Dulude Avenue and said Hi to Jeannine R. When I went by Charlie the Barber’s Shop, I said Hi to him – my first barber as a little boy. At first, my dad took me there – but after a while mom sent me there alone. I had to sit on a board across the arms of the chair — I was so little. I also went to the Quonset hut behind a house facing Sweet Avenue and gazed at that house where Eileen G. lived when we were first-graders at St. Charles School. I told her again, “I love you, Eileen.” And I was imagining being friends with her when we were both 7 years old. I was wanting to go there as a 7-year-older and maybe see her playing outside. I could have said Hi to her for real. Maybe we could have walked to Cass Park together. We never talked to each other when we were children. It would be wonderful to hear the sound of her voice when we were children. I heard her one-year-older brother’s voice once on Sweet Avenue. Ronald Gaouette. He was in second grade when Eileen and I were in first grade. I was sitting on the wall of Mr. & Mrs. Masse’s house. She was a piano teacher. And Ronald came walking up Sweet Avenue. I noticed his eyebrows were gone and asked him about that. He said he accidentally shaved them off.

Dear Eileen Gaouette

Mark: “I am so sorry, Eileen, that I failed to walk with you in that first-grade re-enactment of Mary & Joseph walking to the manger. I wish I had stayed with you. Maybe it would have been the beginning of you & me becoming friends. I wish I had even put my arm around you as we walked together as Mary and Joseph. Imagining now it would have been the most beautiful feeling I ever felt in all my 7 years of life.”

Honestly Writing

Mark: “I believe I am called to be spiritual – rather than natural. Maybe that’s why I never married; didn’t have a family of my own. I wasn’t called to be a husband. I wasn’t called to have a wife. The sinful nature and “the god of this world” are spoiling and corrupting everything on God’s Earth and God’s World. When the internet began many years ago it was a wonderful thing. But the corrupt corporate state that loves money and power has been ruining it for years now. And the United States of America was also a wonderful thing in its beginnings; but the corrupt corporate state and “the god of this world” have been wickedly at work spoiling Our Country, too. All we can do now is wait for the Savior Jesus Christ to return in great glory and power and establish the kingdom of True God on His earth; and rid His world of all things that offend and them who do iniquity and inequity in His Creation. We should all be praying and waiting for Him;  and doing what He said in the gospel – as revealed in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.”

“Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” -Mark 1: 14, 15. ESV Study Bible.

How could Peter the apostle of Jesus Christ be the first pope when he was crucified in Rome by the Romans ? And it was the Romans who established the Roman Catholic religion and declared all the people of the Roman Empire were Roman Catholics.

That is not the gospel of Jesus Christ.
