FROM MY HOUSE
TO YOURS
Dear Parishioners,
Today we begin the week called Holy. Our dra-
matic liturgy recalls the road of suffering and death Jesus
walked, which led to Easter and the celebration of new life
and glory. As we remember the triumphant entry of Jesus
into Jerusalem, and anticipate the events of his Passion,
death and Resurrection, we once again get in touch with the
essence of our faith. These last few days of Lent reaffirm
the meaning of our faith and purpose of our lives.
As Holy Week unfolds, we are reminded of our
own call to faithfulness and obedience to God’s will. As
followers of Jesus, we can expect to face suffering and per-
secution in our own lives, as we often struggle with sinful-
ness and hardships, injustice and pain. However, when we
suffer for Christ and are true to his teachings, we know that
God will not fail us. God will not abandon us. On the con-
trary, God gives us the strength and grace to persevere!
As Christ said, Yes, and remained obedient to the
will of the Father, we, too, are to say, Yes, knowing full
well that in and through our suffering and fidelity we, too,
can reach holiness and righteousness in the sight of our for-
giving God. Anticipating Christ’s victory over death on
Easter, let us remember and be grateful that the darkness of
sin can be swallowed up by the light of his Resurrection.
And so, like the people of Jerusalem, because of Jesus and
our belief in him, we, too, can shout today with confidence
and joy, Hosanna! Hosanna in the highest!
During this special time of Holy Week, the people
of God (the Church), prepare ourselves to renew our own
Baptismal promises and renew our profession of faith at
Easter. In our midst we are happy to have 1 catechumen,
Matt. A catechumen is a non-Baptized person who is jour-
neying toward the Sacraments of Initiation at the Easter
Vigil (Baptism, Confirmation and Holy Eucharist).
I ask you to remember Matt in your prayers as he
continues his journey to become a fully initiated Roman
Catholic at our Easter Vigil.
God Love Ya!
Fr. Reilly

Saint Joseph Triduum March 15th – 17th at 7pm

with our Annual Parish Triduum in his honor. Please
join us these three nights for Exposition of the Blessed
Sacrament, Devotions and Benediction. Our presider
and homilist this year is Rev. Anthony DiGuglielmo,
Vice Chancellor of the Archdiocese Tribunal Office.
Please take some time out of your busy schedule and
join us as we honor a truly a great and holy man, St.
Joseph.
Saint Richard Memorial Brick Garden In order to spruce up and beautify the front of
St. Richard Church we are installing a memorial Brick
Garden. If you are interested in purchasing a Memorial
Brick please see the committee member in the back of
church after all Masses to pick up your order form or if
you have any questions. This Memorial Brick Garden

we honor those family and friends who have returned
home to be with God in paradise. Forms can be picked
up and dropped off at the rectory during regular
business hours.

Example in times of conflict. —From Mindful Meditations for Every Day of Lent and Easter, Rev. Warren J.
