Reflection of the Week
Our readings on this Third Sunday of Lent begin
with the tale from Exodus about how the people
of Israel were in the desert, and they were thirsty.
They were unhappy with Moses, their leader, and
they were disappointed with God to the extent
they questioned whether the Lord was still
present, asking “Is the Lord in our midst or not?”
That is a question we may ask at times. We may
wonder if God is watching over us; we may lose
our trust in God. It is worth noting that the Book of
Exodus tells us in today’s reading that the
Israelites were in a place called Massah and
Meribah. In Hebrew “Massah” means “to test”
and “Meribah” means “to quarrel or provoke.”
The description of the chosen people
“provoking” God and “testing” God may have
applicability to us as well. Stewardship calls for us
to place our faith and trust in God — to believe
and know that He is always with us and always
watching over us.
That is not easy. Jesus never once tells us that it
will be easy or that it is easy. However, He also
assures us in today’s Gospel that He brings us the
“living water.” Even in the Book of Isaiah we are
reminded “With joy you will draw water from the
wells of salvation.” (Is 12:3) As St. Paul says in the
second reading, “…and hope does not
disappoint, because the love of God has been
poured out into our hearts.” (Like living water)

Lenten Regulations
It is this time of year when most of us are a bit
confused about what the proper observances are
for the season
Good Friday is a day of fast. Fasting is
generally understood to be 1 meal without snacking during the
day. Many people mitigate the observances with 2 small meals
that do not equal the sum of the 3rd. All Catholics without
medical problems are obliged to the law of fast, beginning at age
18 and continuing through age 59.
All Fridays of Lent and Good Friday, are days of abstinence.
This law applies to all Catholics 14 years of age and older. No
meat or visible meat products in other foods may be consumed,
including wild game, fowl, lamb, pork or beef. Soy, milk
products, eggs, cheese, fish and shellfish are permitted.
Confession will be on Saturdays from 2:30 to 3:30 pm or by
appointment during Lent.
Please add to our monthly “pray for” list…..
Hilda Cisneros, Rob & Barbara Robbins, †Matthew
North, †Grace Flinn, Toni Marcella, Margaret Dattilo,
Jo Knapic, Lori Courtney, †Ted Baullinger.
Call the office if you wish to add someone to our prayer list
including; our military and members of our parish family and
friends who are sick or who have passed away recently.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Centuries ago, these Lenten days were a time of intense
final preparation for the candidates for baptism. By now,
they had already been numbered among the “elect” for
Easter baptism, and were daily challenged to excel in prayer,
in fasting, and in works of charity. As is true today, at a
certain point in the weekly assembly for Eucharist, the
nonbaptized were dismissed from the assembly for their own
learning and prayer. While they might have had impressions
about the Eucharist, they had no direct experience. The rites
of the church were secret and its worship places off-limits.
For the Easter Vigil, those to be baptized arrived very
hungry from long fasting, and perhaps very apprehensive as
to how initiation was to be accomplished. A long night of
vigil and storytelling, a shimmering pool of baptism, the
anointing with oil and clothing with white robes came as
something of a surprise. At the end of a long, life‑changing
night of embrace by Christ and the community, as the
eucharistic feast ended, a final surprise was brought forward.
To address the deep hunger of the newly baptized, the
church offered a bowl of milk and honey, sign of promises
fulfilled, sign of community, prosperity, and peace, and yet
another foretaste of heaven’s banquet.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Muchos católicos aprovechan el tiempo de Cuaresma para
confesarse. El sacramento de Reconciliación tiene una historia
un poco complicada, pues ha sufrido muchos cambios con el
transcurrir de los siglos. Al principio, la penitencia sólo se
celebraba una sola vez en la vida de un cristiano y era necesaria
en caso de pecado grave, como lo era la apostasía, el adulterio y
el asesinato. El penitente tenía que hacer una confesión en
público, frente al obispo y la comunidad entera. La penitencia
consistía de un ayuno severo y vestir una indumentaria especial
que lo distinguía. Esta penitencia podía durar semanas, y a
veces, meses. Durante este tiempo, el penitente no podía estar
presente en la mesa de la Eucaristía hasta que el obispo le diera
la bendición de reconciliación, la cual, a menudo, se llevaba a
cabo el Jueves Santo. Con el paso del tiempo, los cristianos se
dieron cuenta de la necesidad de celebrar el sacramento de la
Reconciliación con más frecuencia y por otras clases de pecado.
Algún tiempo después, esta práctica cayó en el desuso y
fue sustituida por la confesión privada, la cual se originó entre
los monjes irlandeses. Después, esta práctica fue aceptada por
toda la Iglesia. De esta manera es que nació el sacramento de la
reconciliación que conocemos hoy. Actualmente, a pesar de que
la Iglesia dice que no es necesario acercarse al confesionario
antes de recibir la Comunión, se nos exhorta a confesarnos por
lo menos una vez al año, o lo antes posible después de haber
cometido pecado grave.

“In one way or another, everyone in society works in the service of
humanity. Physicians have opportunities that a priest does not
have, for our mission does not end when medicine is no longer of
help. There still remains the soul that must be brought to God.
Jesus says, ‘Whoever visits the sick is helping me.’ This is a priestly
mission. Just as the priests can touch Jesus, so we doctors touch
Jesus in the bodies of our patients: in the poor, the young, the old,
and children.”

“De una manera u otra, todos los miembros de una sociedad
trabajan al servicio de la humanidad. Los médicos tenemos
oportunidades que un sacerdote no tiene, puesto que nuestra
misión no termina cuando la medicina ya no sirve. Todavía
permanece el alma, que debe ir a Dios. Jesús dijo: ‘Quien visita a
los enfermos me está ayudando a mí”. Esto es una misión
sacerdotal. Así como los sacerdotes pueden tocar a Jesús, los
médicos tocamos a Jesús en los cuerpos de nuestros pacientes: los
pobres, los jóvenes, los ancianos y los niños”.
