students as weil as deepening our own understanding and commitment to living the faith is a privilege, right, and responsibility received from our Baptism in Christ.

We exeft energy and enthusiasm in building a trusting and caring environment so that our time spent with students is an awesome experience! The ultimate goal is to develop a personal relationship with God. Faith Formation begins at home, we serve to assist families in thelr journey. Planting the seed at an early age provides an understanding through gospel based Iessons, prayers, and song. Students receive guidance

in making positive choices and encouraged to

use

spiritual strength to learn from mistakes. Knowing they have Jesus to call on in times of need and joy will prepare them for difficult times ahead Faith formation provides a moral compass for students to help them adapt, survive, and thrive in our changing world.

Enabling children to serve the Lord at a young age as lectors, altar servers, and choir members allows them opportunities to deepen their knowledge of our liturgical celebration. Students are also given the choice of participating in a re-enactment of The Nativity and

Jesus Way of the Cross. These ministries and reenactments have provided students oPPortunities to demonstrate their talents while making the liturgy come alive for them!

Creating these positive experiences gives them a sense

of belonging to a community of believers. Faith formation is an avenue that prepares children to be active participants in the church.

Our Ministry has hopes and dreams.,.these are but

a

few.

GOOD NEWS! A fresco by Paris Nogari outside the pope’s residence reminds us of an important virtue that is often absent in modern times: the capacity to be silent. “Be still and know that I am God!” (Psalm 46:11).

The figure in the fresco, titled Silence, holds a finger over his mouth, indicating that silence starts with us. Speak less! Then we should muffle the background noise, represented by a stork with a stone in its bill to stifle its squawk.

How often do we have times of silence in our lives—and not just moments when there doesn’t happen to be a radio or TV on? I mean purposeful, intentional periods of quiet to be alone with God and ourselves.

Regular times of quiet offer many benefits. They help us reflect, order our thoughts, and contemplate what’s happening inside our hearts and minds. Silence is regenerative and gives us new energy, clarity, and serenity. If we add to this quietude an internal dialogue with ourselves and our Lord, it can take our inner sanctuary to a new level. One will not only find strength but also purpose and focus. Silence is the natural habitat of a flourishing soul, yet we often lock out our inner self in the mayhem of the external world, never allowing it to take in what gives it life—silence.

How about taking an hour without phones, radios, TVs, and computers to dedicate yourself to some meditative work or recreation? Or better yet, take a moment and go to a local perpetual adoration chapel to quietly sit with our Lord.

Reading I - Sirach 27:4-7 In this passage Sirach encouraged a small dose of skepticism akin to “don’t judge a book by its cover.” He counseled his students to look beyond the exterior of a person. A wise person should peer into the mind and into the heart. Only there could you find a person’s true character.

Reading II - 1 Corinthians 15:54-58 In the writings of Paul we see how what we understand of Christ now and what we may expect in the Kingdom of Heaven are related. There will be continuity but what that exactly will be and what it will look like, we must leave to God. Reading III - Luke 6:39-45

— Fr. Mark Haydu, LC

For Reflection: Is there a daily moment when I can enjoy some silence? What will I find in those moments?

What is Lent?

Lent is our time of preparation. A 40-day journey of prayer, fasting and almsgiving, Lent is a journey that spans Ash Wednesday through Holy Week, culminating in the great celebration of Easter.

As Catholics, the spiritual pillars of prayer, fasting and almsgiving guide us in daily reflection on our own lives as we strive to deepen our relationship with God and neighbor—no matter where in the world that neighbor may live.

Saturday St. Frances of Rome

Lent ultimately leads to Easter—and the hope of the Resurrection.

And as Catholics, we are called to share that hope with every member of our global human family.

efore fulass, "it is a praiseworthy practice for silence to be observed in I-)tfre church, in the sacristy, in the vesting room, and in adiacent areas, so that all may dispose themselves to carry out the sacred celebration in a devout and fitting manner' (General Instruction of The Raman Missal,45). For the liturgy to produce its full effects, "it is necessary that the faithful come [c it with proper dispositions, that their minds...be attuned to their voices, and that they cosperate with divine grace lest they receive it in vain" (Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy [Sacrosancturn cancilium],17).In this sense, we are silent together, for the Mass is not a private function but a celebration of the Church as the "sacrament of unity," a holy people united (SC 26).

Thus, from the point of entry in a church to the time of the gathering song, which is intended to foster unity (GIRM 47), how does ycur faith communiry gather for Mass? Some churches with self-contained vestibules are ideal for offering welcome to newcomers and for exchanging greetings. Other sacred spaces are less conducive for separating this informal ritual from a place of quietude. Nevertheless, every faith community, with varying success, creates an atmosphere before Mass where individuals come together as a worshiping body, and at the same time, where people may dispose themselves in a devout manner.
