Fourth Week of Lent

Greetings to all of you!

I can't believe as you read this that it's the 4th week of Lent already!  Thus far, my lent has been a good one although I've stumbled a few times. However, I'm making progress so that's what Lent is really all about.  Hope your Lent is going as well.  Just a few short weeks to go until the big day! Make Easter a meaningful one for you! 

As you can see, the dirt is all spread around for the construction of our new church!  We received notice last week that the building permit has also been issued so I'm looking forward to seeing a wall or two up by Easter! We have been deeply blessed at the swiftness of these permits and I look forward to seeing the Church going up soon.  

I was also moved by the responses of those who attended our 3-day mission with Fr. DiSianno.  He presented some wonderful insights on prayer and also the prayers of the Mass.  Although it was an incredible presentation, I just wish that more people were able to attend.  These are opportunities to experience our faith in a deeper way and be more educated in our richness and history.  Try not to let these moments go by.

Well, that is all for now.  May God continue to give you His strength and fortitude during this most holy time.

Peace,
Fr. David
