L ENT B EGINS ...
On this coming Wednesday, February 10, we
begin the season of Lent. This Wednesday is
called Ash Wednesday - a day ashes are blessed
and imposed on the foreheads of the faithful.
This ceremony reminds us that we are entering a time of prayer,
penance and almsgiving in preparation for the celebration of the
Paschal Mystery, the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
The season of Lent challenges us to admit that we have sinned
and fallen short of glory of God. If we are not sinners we have no
need of the sacrament of Penance. If we are not recognizing
ourselves as sinners, we have no need for Christ. No man or
woman can celebrate the mystery of Christ in joy if they do not
recognize that he or she is a sinner. We all need to cry out, “Lord,
be merciful to me a sinner.” The Church also places before us the
great cardinal works of the spiritual life - prayer, fasting and
almsgiving. Traditionally these works were part of the spiritual
exercises and also a sign of repentance. They were seen as a
sign of the goodwill of a person and the community to repair the
damage done by our sins. These works of mercy not only renew
and strengthen our faith and spiritual discipline; they also help
those in need. Our fasting and abstinence during this special
season strengthens the body of Christ, and it also is a sign that we
are willing to undertake the gospel way of life. On Ash
Wednesday, we hear the words of Jesus: “Repent and be faithful
to the Gospel.” Let us pray that this season of Lent will strengthen
us to bring forth abundant fruit and blessings for ourselves and for
the Church.
Lent is a time to evaluate our lives in the light of the Gospel! The
Church provides us with opportunities for the sacrament of
penance, to help us make a new start in life. We also have
opportunities for works of charity through the Rice Bowl Operation
and our food kitchen. Each Lenten season I encourage families to
set time aside for prayer. The old adage is still true: “the family
that prays together - stays together.” Lastly I encourage
parishioners to attend a weekday Mass during this special season,
and to participate in our weekly stations of the cross.

RESPECT LIFE
Carl A. Anderson on the "New Normal"
"........Forty-three years after Roe v. Wade, the American people
have reached a consensus on an issue the pundits have told us
is “unsolvable.” The Marist poll, sponsored by the Knights of
Columbus, has been conducted on this issue for nearly a decade, and it has shown a remarkably consistent agreement of
about eight in ten Americans in favor of significant abortion restrictions. It is time for a new discussion on abortion, one not
based on labels, but on the real views of the American people. It
is time to talk about this issue as it is and to craft restrictions that
the vast majority of us agree on, rather than trying to keep in
place a legal regime the American people never asked for, and
clearly do not support." - Carl A. Anderson, Supreme Knight of
the Knights of Columbus
