Show 3 Jessie, who for some reasons has not appeared in our Newsletters, has been with us most of the year past. She was born in a Sanatorium, and the State Welfare has asked us to take care of her until the mother is out and able to do it. Jessie is just beginning to walk, and like all small children wants to find out what is in everything. Tea leaves were in the last thing, and soon she was in them! Jeannette has been very helpful, and shown a motherly attitude towards Jessie. But now! Jeannette's stepmother came into the clinic and brought forth a baby girl. And is Jessie's nose out of joint! Her first effort to get attention expressed itself in her taking off all her clothes and throwing them into the bathtub. She got attention! We had a New Year's baby, but a few hours too late to get the prize offered to the first born in the Four Corners area. Two years ago we had the winner. WATCH OUT FOR THE MAY ISSUE OF CORONET MAGAZINE. No, this is not a commercial. We are told that there will be an article, illustrated, about the Mission. We are sure all our readers will want to see it. We recall the photographer who came last Spring to I take the pictures. Charming man, lovely Wife and children. Every time he snapped the camera he muttered "terrific!" So we know the pictures will be good. I TIHE outstation work and religious classes in government schools continue to grow. Bridges and roads make it easier to get to more and more people. The new village of EI Paso, Utah, which has sprung up where only desert was before, offers a challenge to do both white and Navaho work. We need more priests, younger priests, able to get around, learn Navaho, reach people where they are to be found. We now have Sunday afternoon masses in various parts of our area - the morning services, of course are here at St. Christopher's, but soon after Sunday School one of the cars is packed and a group is off. |
