Parishioners and visitors often remark on the arrangements

adorning our sanctuary.

They are always fresh cut flowers, replaced weekly.

You can help with the cost involved by using the floral

arrangements to honor the living or memorialize the dead. An

acknowledgment of those being honored or memorialized and

also the name of those arranging it will be placed in the

bulletin each week.

A similar arrangement can be made for the Sanctuary

Candles.

Please contact the parish office at 772-546-5150 for details.

First Reading, Sirach 27:4–7In his conversation is the test of the man.

Responsorial Psalm, Psalm 92: 2–3,13–16The just shall flourish like a palm tree.

Second Reading, 1 Corinthians 15: 54–58Thanks be to God who has given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Gospel Reading, Luke 6:39–45Each tree is known by its yield.

The third and final section of Luke’s Sermon on the Plain begins: And he told them a parable. There are actually four parables, three of which we read today. They are all about how to be a good disciple.

The blind cannot lead the blind. And a disciple cannot be a good disciple unless he or she has learned from the teacher. Everyone who is fully trained is like the teacher who knows how to cure the blind. Before you can be a good disciple and teach others you must take care of yourself. Do not try to take a speck out of your brother ’s eye until you have taken the board out of your own. Finally, only when you have purified yourself can you produce the good works that the teacher requires. Discipleship asks us to produce good deeds. But to produce them requires the integrity and purity of heart found in the teacher. When people see your good deeds they will know that this is because you have a good heart.

The final parable, which we do not read today, is about building on the solid foundation of rock and not on sand. This is the only way to face the difficulties a disciple will encounter and survive.

Lenten Regulations

Fasting is to be observed by all 18 years of age through age 59. On a fast day one full meal is allowed. Two oth-er meals, sufficient to maintain strength, may be taken

according to each one’s needs, but together they should not equal another full meal. Eating between

meals is not permitted but liquids are allowed.

Abstinence is observed by all 14 years of age and old-er.

On days of abstinence no meat is allowed. Note that when health or ability to work would be seriously affect-ed, the law does not oblige. When in doubt concerning fast and abstinence, the parish priest should be con-

sulted.

Fasting alms iving and prayer are the three disciplines of Lent. The faithful should undertake these practices seriously in a spirit of penance and of preparation for

baptism or of renewal of baptism at Easter.
