Dear Friends in the Lord Jesus: Welcome to this year’s celebration of Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent, a time of grace for all of us. It is a time of prayer, or self-reflection and conversion. These forty days of Lent lead us to the Holy Week and Easter.
Who are we who gather today? Some cone here daily, others weekly, and some very seldom. To all of you without distinction, I say WELCOME in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. I want you to know that you are always welcome.
Ash Wednesday very dramatically calls on us again to put first things first in our lives, to get our priorities of life correct so that we might be found to be good stewards of God. May all of us turn our back on sin and evil and false goods, and turn our lives over to Jesus Christ, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. It is never too late to turn back to the Lord. He is always waiting for us to find our way home. “Now is the day of salvation – now is the acceptable time”. We only have the today of our lives to work with. We do not know if we have a tomorrow or another year or another Lent.
Let us walk with the Lord this Lent. Let us walk together. If you can, attend daily Mass or as often as possible. We have Stations of the Cross and Benediction each Friday evening at 5:00pm. Always attend Sunday Mass with fidelity. That is central to our Catholic faith. I want you to feel part of our Parish family. You Pastor and friend,
Father Joseph A.
Nolan
