We are called to recognize that each one of us is a beloved child of God and to respond in love to that reality. #CivilizeIt is a non-partisan call to focus on the dignity of all people, even when we disagree, and to put faith in action by bearing witness to a better way forward. Pledge civility, clarity, and compassion this election year #civilizit2020.

Ash Wednesday is February 26th and marks the beginning of the Lenten Season as we “turn away from sin and believe in the Gospel”.
The mark of ash
rubbed onto our foreheads
is made in the shape of a cross.
Thus it is not only a reminder
of our own mortality
(and consequently, how we should live)
but also a reminder of the sacrificial love of the one who suffered and died in our place,
the one who loved us and gave himself for us,
the one who died that we might live,
the one who rose that first Easter morn,
and calls us to eternal life with Him. And we celebrate this mystery,
with the treasure of his Word,
the rich heritage of a living faith that both connects us to those before us and enlightens, instructs and encourages us as His disciples today.
This is a Living Word that draws us to the Eucharistic Table,
the many now one body
in the treasure of his body,
sharing the new and everlasting covenant in the bread and the wine,
given for the forgiveness of sin,
for such is the richness of his love for us.
See you at Mass, as we begin the journey together, from Ashes to Easter Joy!
Let's pause and pray,
right now,
for one another
and for all who will come to church tomorrow,
on Ash Wednesday...
Let's pray for a new beginning in faith,
a new beginning in prayer,
a new beginning with God...
Let's pray for a season of serving others
especially those most in need...
Let's pray for a springtime
of renewal in faith,
leading us to Easter
and the peace of the Risen Jesus...
Amen.
Thanks to these 8th grade students for helping us with the delivery of our new Chapel chairs!
SO NICE.

Let your doubt strengthen your faith
Faith is a gift that invites us to believe in that which cannot be seen with our eyes, only our hearts. So it is not unusual to experience some doubts along life’s way. A sudden death, a violent crime, or nothing you can pinpoint can trigger doubts. When doubts arise, do not be afraid. Do not run from the questions but trust that facing them can lead you to a deeper faith. When darkness clouds what you once took for granted, speak honestly to God even if you doubt God is listening, read God’s word in scripture for each day, and beg the unseen God to increase your faith, as the Catechism puts it.
TODAY'S GOSPEL: Mark 9:14-29 “I do believe! Help my unbelief.”

The Eucharist spurs us to respect and revere everything — ourselves, our neighbor, the Earth. The real presence is in us and through us and all around us.
St. Teresa of Avila (1515-82), the mystical doctor of the church who saw all things with the eye of her soul, famously wrote: "Christ has no body on earth but yours. Yours are the eyes with which he looks compassionately on this world. Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good. Yours are the hands with which he blesses all the world. Christ has no body now on earth but yours!"
