Ash Wednesday Schedule


March 2nd, 2022 @ 7:45 AM or March 2nd, 2022 @ 7:00 PM
“All go to one place. All are from the dust, and to dust all return.”– Ecclesiastes, 3:20.
Join us for the Mass celebration and reflection of Ash Wednesday. This important holy day in the Catholic Church marks the entering into our Lenten season of fasting and prayer. In a joyful way, we are reminded that our time as pilgrims on Earth is temporary, and we are all longer and awaiting our true home.
Ash Wednesday is a day of fasting. For more on the spirituality of fasting, see the link below.
“Ash Wednesday is full of joy… The source of all sorrow is the illusion that of ourselves we are anything but dust.” – Thomas Merton

Lectio Divina Series for Lent

Thursday Mornings of Lent @ 7 AM Online
The prophet Samuel said, “Speak, Lord, your servant is listening”. (1 Sam 3:10) This Lent, let’s ask the Lord to speak to us, and may we grow these 40 days as servants who listen.
Speak, Lord is a 7 week Lenten journey through Lectio Divina, which is Latin for Divine Reading. Each Thursday morning we will start our day together with a focused reading of the upcoming Sunday Gospel (lectio), we will then meditate on this Word from God (meditatio), contemplate what His Word is speaking into our life (contemplatio), and finally pray (oratio).
Materials needed: Internet connection, Bible, pen, highlighter and notebook.

If you are commuting but still would like to join, listen in! You will need cellular data and an AUX cord or Bluetooth connection to your vehicle.
