MASS INTENTIONS

At the end of our weekend Masses, you will notice a few

individuals who are begging for money outside of the church

doors as you exit the building. These individuals have been

given the phone number for our parish’s St. Vincent de Paul

Society, for which they do not seem to be interested in.

However, it has been noticed that these very individuals come

early to the church to reconnoiter our parking lot for unlocked

car doors, thereby stealing items from within the cars. Please be

sure that the interior of your cars are clear of any items as

possible and be sure to keep your car doors locked.

Fridays during Lent: 3:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Adoration

6:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Confession

6:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Stations of the Cross

7:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Mass

SAFETY CONCERNS

Congratulations to all the children who received the

sacrament of First Reconciliation!

In April, we will begin to prepare the children for the

sacrament of First Communion through our retreat days and

class visits to our 6 Parish schools. Please refer to the RCIC

preparation schedule if your child attends a Public School,

Other Catholic School or is in grade 3-6, as there are no

classes until April 13th.

Please see below for the attire for First Communion (we

have two First Communion dresses available. Please let

Mrs. Selda know if you are interested):

-Boys must wear a white shirt, no running shoes. A suit can

be white or any other colour. Arm bands can be worn but

are not essential.

-Girls can wear a white or off white dress, if wearing a veil

they must not cover the face, no gloves, purses or rosary

during the celebration.

HEALTH & HANDS

At this time of the year when cold viruses and flus are common

place, we are conscious that we do not want to give or receive this

particular illness. At Mass, if someone should not extend his or

her hand to you, please do not be offended. Perhaps he or she

would not like to pass on his or her germs. To ensure that we have

a clean and healthy environment, we at St. Francis de Sales Parish

are constantly changing the water in our baptismal font as well as

sanitizing all surfaces handled by the public. If you have the flu,

we ask you to please stay home and rest. The Catholic Church

does not consider missing Mass on Sunday due to illness as a sin.

REFLECTION

Litany of Trust

From the belief that I have to earn Thy love … Deliver me,

Jesus.

From the fear that I am unlovable … Deliver me, Jesus.

From the false security that I have what it takes … Deliver me,

Jesus.

From the fear that trusting Thee will leave me more destitute

… Deliver me, Jesus.

From all suspicion of Thy words and promises … Deliver me,

Jesus.

From the rebellion against childlike dependency on Thee …

Deliver me, Jesus.

From refusals and reluctances in accepting Thee will …

Deliver me, Jesus.

From anxiety about the future … Deliver me, Jesus.

From resentment or excessive preoccupation with the past …

Deliver me, Jesus.

From restless self-seeking in the present moment … Deliver

me, Jesus.

From disbelief in Your love and presence … Deliver me, Jesus.

From the fear of being asked to give more than I have …

Deliver me, Jesus.

From the belief that my life has no meaning or worth …

Deliver me, Jesus.

From the fear of what love demands … Deliver me, Jesus.

From discouragement … Deliver me, Jesus.

That Thou art continually holding me, sustaining me, loving

me … Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That Thy love goes deeper than my sins and failings and

transforms me …Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That not knowing what tomorrow brings is an invitation to

lean on Thee … Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That Thou art with me in my suffering … Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That my suffering, united to Thine own, will bear fruit in this

life and the next …Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That Thou will not leave me an orphan, that Thou art present

in Thy Church…Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That Thou plan is better than anything else … Jesus, I trust in

Thee.

That Thou always hear me, and in Thy goodness always

respond to me …Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That Thou give me the grace to accept forgiveness and to

forgive others …Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That Thou give me all the strength I need for what is asked

…Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That my life is a gift … Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That Thou will teach me to trust Thee … Jesus, I trust in Thee.

That Thou are my Lord and my God … Jesus, I trust in Thee.

STEWARDSHIP

Cardinal Thomas Collins’ Pastoral Letter on Stewardship –

Section One: The Meaning of Stewardship

Cardinal Thomas Collins’ Pastoral Letter on Stewardship is

organized into four sections, with the first being The Meaning of

Stewardship in the Christian Life. This section explores the

reality that we are invited by God to be good stewards of His gifts.

“If we truly have the spirit of stewardship, we will not let God’s

gifts go to waste, and we will not selfishly cling to them, but use

them graciously to serve others, and in doing so give glory to

God.” To read the full pastoral letter, download resources and

learn more about deep stewardship, please visit
