First Sunday of Lent Mark 1:12-15
Lent is meant to be our journey
into the desert. Just as Jesus spent
these days fighting with
temptation and ultimately
building up his spiritual strength,
we too are called to spend the
next forty days doing battle with
the things that tempt us. We are
invited during this holy season to
grow in self-discipline by giving
something up for Lent. The long-
standing Christian practices of
prayer, fasting, and almsgiving
are also important elements of
this spiritual battle. When we
pray, we open ourselves to the
Holy Spirit, thereby squeezing
out any spirit of selfishness or evil
that threatens to control our
hearts. When we fast, we exercise
the virtue of temperance, or self-
control. This virtue is of
tremendous value when we are
tempted to indulge our bodily
senses in ways that are not
healthy or holy. And almsgiving--
when it is truly generous--also
strengthens us spiritually by
shifting our gaze to the needs of
others, even to the point of
making a personal sacrifice.
During Lent, we acknowledge the
battle between good and evil
within our own souls and do what
we can to stir up a victory for
goodness. This season of
purification can help each of us to
become a better, holier, and
therefore happier person. May we
make good use of this, our
journey into the desert.

FROM THE BUSINESS MANAGER
As we enter into week three of the Annual Catholic Appeal we have attained 61% of our parish goal. Thank you for all your support. If you have made an online donation, please complete a pledge card with that information for our parish records.
All monies above our goal of $62,000 will remain here in the parish and be used to close out the Fire Restoration Fund.
LENTEN REGULATIONS
Abstinence All who have reached their 14th birthday are to abstain from eating meat on Ash Wednesday and on all Fridays during Lent.
Fasting All those who are 18 and older, until their 59th birthday, are to fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. Only one full meal is allowed on days of fast. Two other meals, sufficient to maintain strength, may be taken according to one’s needs. But together, they should not equal a full meal. Eating between meals is not permitted, but liquids are allowed.
The obligation does not apply to those whose health or ability to work would be seriously affect-ed. People in doubt about fast or abstinence should consult a parish priest.

BAPTISMS
DAILY PRAYER FOR PRIESTS
O Jesus, I pray for your faithful and; fervent priests;
For your unfaithful and tepid priests; For your priests laboring at home or
Abroad in distant mission fields. For your tempted priests;
For your lonely and desolate priests; For your young priests; For your dying priests;
For the souls of your priests in Purgatory. But above all, I recommend to you
The priests dearest to me; The priest who baptized me;
The priests who absolved me from my sins; The priests at whose Masses I assisted and who gave me
Your Body and Blood in Holy Communion; The priests who taught and instructed me;
All the priests to whom I am indebted in any other way
(especially……………..….) O Jesus, keep them all close to your heart,
And bless them abundantly in time and in Eternity,
Amen
