Today we celebrate the First Sunday of the Holy Season of Lent. The forty days of Lent that we began on Ash Wednesday unites us to the forty-day experience of Jesus in the desert in preparation to begin His earthly ministry.

Amidst growing concerns, Saturday's St. Patrick’s Day Dinner Sponsored by the Knights of Columbus, is now a TAKE-OUT ONLY event. Tickets may be purchased at the door for $12.00. Refunds are available at the door.

On the last Sunday of this part of Ordinary Time before Lent, the Gospel brings us to the end of the Sermon on the Mount. The message from today’s readings is a very meaningful way to prepare us to enter the season of penance, reconciliation, and renewal with the universal call to holiness. “You shall be holy, for I, the Lord, your God am holy.”

This Sunday marks the third week of our reflections upon Jesus’ preaching on the Sermon on the Mount. The Beatitudes is the “Blue print” of Jesus’ mission and fundamentals of what it means to be a disciple of Jesus. As His disciples we are called to live, not by any standard, but by the standards given to us by God.
