RCIA—RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF ADULTS
BECOMING CATHOLIC…WHAT IS THE PERIOD OF PURIFICATION
AND ENLIGHTENMENT? The period of purification and enlightenment
begins after the Rite of Election, which was celebrated at the cathedral
with Bishop Pates last Sunday. The tone of this period of preparation of
RCIA shifts to more of a retreat. It is a period of prayerful recollection,
“consisting more in interior reflection than in catechetical
instruction.” (RCIA, n. 139). “If the rite intended the previous periods of
formation to form disciples into the paschal mystery, this period‟s
intention is to intensify desire by helping the elect to purify their minds
and hearts and also to enlighten them with a deeper knowledge of
Christ.” (The RCIA: Transforming the Church, p. 166)
Thus, the elect join with the parish community in beginning our Lenten
retreat. This time of reflection and penance helps the elect to step out
of the routine of life to prepare better for the life-changing commitment
they will make at the Easter Vigil. “The elect have made an important
choice in their lives: to follow the Lord as disciples in the company of the
Christian community.” In fact, the origins of the liturgical season of Lent
go back to the early Church‟s initiatory practice. Lent was the time of
final, prayerful preparation for those whom the Church would baptize,
confirm and celebrate eucharist at the great Vigil of Easter. Later, the
focus of Lent shifted from preparation for initiation to recommitment or
reconciliation. The restoration of RCIA has renewed the initiation focus
for this beautiful season of Lent. (The RCIA: Transforming the Church, p.
166-7)
Please continue to hold our elect and candidates in prayer as they journey
toward the Easter sacraments. If you would like to know more about
becoming Catholic, please contact Casey Conner at
[email protected] or 515-225-6414 ext. 309.

FOR ALL PARISHIONERS
 WHAT YOU WILL SEE IN THE SANCTUARY
Pieces that will form a quilt which will be on display on Palm Sunday
and Holy Thursday, will begin to appear in the front of the ambo. The
five countries that we are focusing on during our CRS Rice Bowl
Project will be depicted in these quilt squares.
Words from our Director of Art & Environment, Pam Douglas: “The
quilt includes two symbols representing two ways of remembering the
poor. I chose the rice bowl symbol from the CRS box to represent
our hopes for everyone in their different situations to receive their
portion and cup. The next symbol used is the biblical block entitled
„Children of Israel‟ symbolizing God‟s people while in exile and slavery.
This symbol fit for me because the people CRS are trying to help are
struggling with the many ways they are suffering or lacking in what
they need. The work CRS does is trying to help them break out of
their suffering and to help them find better ways to live. It is
through reading the Psalms that we are reminded that through
patience and trust in God we will see this happen. I found a prayer
that resonated with me and my understanding of what CRS hopes to
do for the poor:
Christ, who showed great compassion to the poor,
Give us compassion toward those in poverty.
Your wish is for all of your children to live with dignity,
with adequate food, shelter, health care and education.
Help us to take up your work as a community of faith
and guide us as we seek just solutions to the poverty in
our midst. Amen.”
 SACRED HEART BLOOD DRIVE
Be Christ-like and
give the “Gift of
Life” by donating
blood. Not only is
Lent a time of
abstinence,
but
also a time of
giving to those in
need.
What
a
perfect time to donate a pint of blood. Schedule your appointment for
the next Sacred Heart Blood Drive to be held on Thursday, March 10,
2016 from 2:00 – 7:00 PM in the Parish Center. For more information
or to schedule an appointment to donate, please contact either Bill
Wieland at 515-321-7980, or Steve Miller at 515-229-6820. You can

Heart Blood Drives.

Hemos iniciado el tiempo de cuaresma. Este, es un tiempo de retiro
spiritual en el cual todos estamos invitados a recargar nuestras
baterías con la fuerza del Espíritu Santo. Nosotros necesitamos el
Espíritu Santo porque somos materia, carne humana, débiles seres
humanos que no somos inmunes al pecado. Si reflexionamos en el
evangelio de la semana pasada el mismo Jesucristo hijo de Dios fue
tentado por el demonio. Vemos a un Jesús que se enfrenta a las
tentaciones del demonio, tentaciones que por cierto duraran hasta
el final de su vida.
Tenemos tantas tentaciones en nuestros días y en esta sociedad tan
acelerada, que muchas veces sentimos que nuestra vida, es un
auténtico campo de batalla entre el amor y el egoísmo, la verdad y la
mentira, la paz y el odio, la justicia y la injusticia, la dureza y la
misericordia. Hay muchas personas que piensan que las mayores
tentaciones en su vida son: el hablar del prójimo, las tendencias
sexuales, y robar; aunque quizás la tentación más grande, más allá
del consumismo que nos invade, es la búsqueda de poder. Hay muchas
personas que se dicen llamar cristianos comprometidos; pero en su
vida diaria se dedican a buscar el poder pasando por encima de los
más pequeños. En realidad a estas personas que no contribuyen al
bien común no se les puede llamar
cristianos; sino opresores. Esta gente en
lugar de velar por el bien común, velan por
su propio bienestar… en este de retiro
cuaresmal todos estamos invitados a
reflexionar en la búsqueda del bien común.
Queridos hermanos deseo que la cuaresma
sea un tiempo de
gracia y amor
para cada uno de
ustedes.
