Dear Friends,

Next Sunday is the First Sunday of Lent, the beginning of our preparation for the holiest day in our Liturgical Year - Easter Sunday - which recalls Our Savior's resurrection from the dead. The Gospel on Ash Wednesday reminds us of how we are to prepare for this Holy Day - by prayer, fasting and almsgiving.

I want to remind you of the Church's requirements for Lent. On Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, Catholics 18 to 59 are required to fast. Fasting means having only one full meal. Two smaller meals, not to equal the one full meal, are permitted. Catholics age 14 to 59 are also required to abstain from meat and meat products on Ash Wednesday, Good Friday and every Friday in Lent.

The Masses for Ash Wednesday are at 7 and 8:30 am, noon, and 7:30 pm in English, and 8:30 pm in Spanish. Please join us for the Stations of the Cross on Fridays, at 11:30 am in English, and for a bilingual service at 7 pm.

God Bless,

Father Kevin
