2nd Sunday of Lent

Dear Parishioners;

At this early point in our Lenten journey, our Scripture readings remind us of God’s promise to humanity and His faithfulness to those promises. Today we hear two dramatic encounters with God. In the dark of night, God leads Abraham in to a covenant, promising that Abraham’s descendants will be as numerous as the stars of the sky and live in the Promised Land. In the Gospel from Saint Luke, God speaks to Peter, James, and John through the shadow of a cloud. Saint Paul, who had his own dramatic encounter with God, assures the Philippians—and us—that we will share in Christ’s glory in heaven.

The second collection this weekend is for the Church roof. I ask for your continued generosity.

All parishioners, young and the not-so-young, are invited to SPRING CLEAN-UP Day on Saturday, March 23rd, beginning at 10:00 A.M. Confirmation candidates in Phase I and II are strongly encouraged to participate in this endeavor. You will receive service hours for your time spent in helping spruce up the parking lot planters. Please see the bulletin for further details.

Please mark your calendar for the annual Parish Mission. Father Chris Kryanski, O.S.M. will lead another Mission April 1-2-3. He will preach at all weekend Masses the weekend of March 30th and 31st . The theme for the Mission is : “IT’S ALL ABOUT GOD.”

Confessions will be heard in every parish of the Archdiocese on Wednesday, March 27, April 3, April 10. The time will be 5:00 P.M.- 6:30 P.M.

Have a Blessed Lenten journey!
