Please pray for the

peaceful repose of the soul of Patricia

Migliore who recently

passed away and is enjoying

everlasting life.

Sunday Reflection Every year the first two Sundays of Lent

present the whole gamut of

human existence, the whole

range of the history of

salvation. On the first Sunday

of Lent the temptation of

Jesus recalls the temptation

of every human being

since the beginning. On this second Sun-

day of Lent the transfiguration of Jesus

holds out the transformation in glory

which is the goal of every human hope.

The transfigured Jesus, however, models

not only the goal of the Christian but also

our ongoing life. The passage forms a

fitting climax to the instruction on

discipleship which immediately precedes

it (Luke 9:23-27). First of all, Luke

emphasizes that Jesus’ transfiguration

took place “while he was praying,” an

action integral to Christian life (cf. Luke

18:1) Secondly, he speaks with Moses

and Elijah concerning his exodus, his

transit to the Father , through death,

resurrection, and exaltation, which is

announced in the first passion prediction

(Luke 9:22). The disciples also are called

to take up the cross and follow Jesus in

order to arrive at life. Then they will see

the glory of the Son of Man and of the

Father (9:23-27). This appearance is a

foretaste of that glory. Finally, at the

transfiguration the voice from the cloud,

heard at Jesus’ baptism, is heard again,

this time commanding, “Listen to him.”

The disciples are those who “listen to the

word of God and keep it.”

Thus we see in the transfigured Jesus both

the goal and the way. We must not

confuse the one for the other. The

transfiguration marks only a temporary

halt in the journey to Jerusalem, only a

pause in this exodus. We who follow

Jesus must continue to the end,

strengthened by the glorious hope to

which we are called.

THE LIGHT IS ON FOR YOU!

Haven’t been to Confession in a while? Interested, but

worry you don’t remember how to make a good

confession? Visit http://diopitt.org/light-you-1 for

FAQ’s, a short guide to confessions, reflections and

more. Confessions will be available on Wednesday,

March 9 from 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm in every Catholic parish in the Diocese.

Due to Wednesday evening Mass, Holy Sepulcher will have

confessions from 6:00-6:45 pm, Mass from 7:00-7:45 and confessions

again from 7:45-9:00 pm.

EUCHARISTIC ADORATION

During the season of Lent, we will have Eucharistic

Adoration on Wednesdays (March 2, 9, 16 and 23)

from 9:00 am - 6:45 pm. Each Lent we are called to reflection, prayer,

penance and fasting. Eucharistic Adoration is an opportunity for us to spend

time with Our Lord in quiet prayer, meditation and adoration. Also, some

additional ways of prayer and reflection available at Holy Sepulcher to

enhance our Lenten journey are Daily Mass and Stations of the Cross.

The Lord invited us to come be in His presence and spend time with him.

40 Days for Life Have you signed up for “40 Days for Life” yet? We need volunteers to stand with us at the Planned Parenthood abortion facility on 933 Liberty Ave., Pittsburgh, PA on Fri., March 18 between the hours of 11:00 am - 3:00 pm to represent Holy Sepulcher in this important ministry. Some people pray the Rosary; others pray silently; some groups like to sing; others remain silent. We will provide signs to hold. When you pray at a ”40 Days” vigil, your witness serves as a beacon of light to the women going into the abortion center, to the workers inside the building and to the people walking or driving by. This witness can start a dialogue that can save a life - a dialogue that cannot happen if you not there. For more information, call Debbie Busin at 724-510-8670 or Gretchen Cararie at 724-898-2529.

FROM FATHER BOB

On Saturday, February 20, forty-one second graders from our Parish School and Faith Formation Program received the Sacrament of Penance for the first time. In doing so, they took their final and most important step in their preparation to receive First Holy Communion shortly after Easter. I met with each class over the past few weeks and discussed with them the importance of this beautiful sacrament in which their sins will be washed away and forgiven. In a real sense, the children who made their first Reconciliation remind us during this season of Lent that each of us are unfortunately marked and affected by sin. Nevertheless, the loving forgiveness of Jesus Christ is always present and offered to us in a most profound way in the Sacrament of Penance, which Christ Himself instituted on Easter Sunday (John 20:23), so that His ministry of mercy would continue until the end of time.

What are some values and goals that people have today that

show that they take God’s law of love seriously?

difficult for the disciples to appreciate at the time before his

death. How do you suppose this sign helped the disciples under-

stand who Jesus was?

What are some ways we can deepen our appreciation and rever-

While he was praying his

face changed in appearance and his clothing became

EVENTS AND NEWS

PRAYER FOR THE YEAR OF MERCY

Lord Jesus Christ, You have taught us to be merciful like the heavenly Father, and have told us that

whoever sees you sees Him. Show us your face and we will be saved. Your loving gaze freed Zacchaeus and

Matthew from being enslaved by money; the adulteress and Magdalene from seeking

happiness only in created things; made Peter weep after his betrayal, and assured Para-dise to the repentant thief. Let us hear, as if addressed to each one of us, the words that

you spoke to the Samaritan woman: “If you knew the gift of God!”

You are the visible face of the invisible fa-ther, of the God who manifests his power above all by forgiveness and mercy: let the church be your visible face in the world, its Lord risen and glorified. You willed that your ministers would also be clothed in weakness in order that they may feel compassion for those in ignorance and error: let everyone who approaches them feel sought after,

loved, and forgiven by God. Send you Spirit and consecrate every one of us with its anointing, so that the Jubilee of Mercy may be a year of grace from the Lord, and your Church, with renewed enthusiasm, may bring good news to the poor, proclaim liberty to captives and the oppressed,

and restore sight to the blind. We ask this through the intercession of Mary, Mother of Mercy, you who live and reign with Father and the Holy Spirit for

ever and ever. Amen.
