TO LIVE IS CHRIST
Philippians 1: 21
Christ enables us to live in him all that he himself lived, and he lives it in us. “By his Incarnation, he, the Son of God, has in a certain way united himself with each person.” We are called only to become one with him, for he enables us as the members of his Body to share in what he lived for us in his flesh as our model.

THE GREATEST AMONG YOU SERVES THE LEAST
Matthew 23: 11
The mysteries of Christ’s life are the foundations of what he would henceforth dispense in the sacraments through the ministers of his Church, for “what was visible in our Savior has been passed over into the sacraments” (Saint Leo the Great, Sermon, 74, 2).

THE GREATER LOVE
John 15: 13
When we believe in Jesus Christ, partake of his mysteries and keep his commandments, the Savior himself comes to love in us, his Father and his brethren, our Father and our brethren. His person becomes, through the Spirit, the living and interior rule of our activity.

LENTEN PENANCE SERVICE
7:00 pm
As we become more and more aware of our interdependence on one another and all creation, we gather in the presence of God to celebrate, receive, and share in the mercy and love of God. We call to mind that nothing in this World is beyond the redemption and love of God.
REFLECTION – UNLESS YOU FORGIVE
SOME THOUGHTS INSPIRED BY MARK 11: 26
THE MUTUALITY OF FORGIVENESS
EXAMINATION OF CONSCIENCE:
CREATION
How majestic is your name, O God, through all creation!
I look up at your heavens, shaped by your fingers,
At the moon and the stars you set firm –
Who and what are we that you spare a thought for us,
children of humanity that you so care for us?
PSALM 8
SELF
Look at the birds of the air.
They do not sow or reap or gather into barns;
yet your heavenly God feeds them.
Are you not worth much more than they?
MATTHEW 6:26
OTHERS
I say to you, always treat others as you would have them treat you;
that is the Law and the Prophets.
MATTHEW 7:32
GOD
Where shall I go, O Lord, to escape your Spirit?
Where shall I flee from your presence?
If I fly to the heights of the heavens you are there,
if I plunge to the depths of the earth,
even there, your hand will guide me.
Your presence will never abandon me.
Psalm 139
