3rd Sunday of Lent We meet the Samaritan woman in today’s Gospel. Her
conversation with Jesus put her on the ‘fast track’ to self
-searching and repentance. Her conversation with Jesus
transformed her into a great evangelizer: “Many of the
Samaritans of that town began to believe in Him because
of the word of the woman who testified, ‘He told me
everything I have done.’" This week consider how your
prayer, fasting or almsgiving is transforming your life.
Share what God has done for you with someone.

A Special Concert Featuring
Dominique Dodge, Harper St. Mary Church
Sunday, March 29

the White Mountains and now divides her time between
New Hampshire and Cape Breton. Her new album,
“Cànan nan Teud” (The Language of the Strings)
features archivally-sourced Gaelic songs from Cape
Breton and explores the relationship between Puirt-a-
Beul (mouth music) and traditional dance music. A
deep love of Gaelic music and culture brings this music
to life through a combination of harp, sing and story for
all who enjoy traditional music. Please join us for this
very special inspiring evening.
Tickets are available for advance purchase through
Online Giving ($13—includes processing fee), may be
purchased by check at the Parish Office (check payable
to St. Mary Church with Dominique Dodge in the
memo line) or may be purchased at the door

FESTIVAL EASTER
CHILDREN’S CHOIR
It is time to begin rehearsals
for the Festival Easter
Children’s Choir. Children
ages 8-13 are invited to join.
Rehearsals will be held on the following Sunday
evenings from 6:00-6:55pm in the Church: March 15,
29 and April 5. The children will sing at the 10am
Mass on Easter Sunday, April 12. We hope many young
people will join the choir to triumphantly proclaim
through song Christ’s glorious resurrection. For more
information please contact Jane O’Keefe at
[email protected] or leave a message at
the Parish Office.
Easter Choir
If you’ve considered joining the 10am choir but were
afraid of the time commitment, you are welcome to add
your voice for the Liturgies of the Sacred Triduum.
There will be four rehearsals taking place on the
following Sunday evenings from 7-9pm: March 15, 29
and April 5. The Liturgies of Holy Week are nothing
new to us. Take the opportunity to experience these
ancient rituals from a fresh perspective by singing about
Christ’s triumphant procession into Jerusalem on Palm
Sunday, the Lord’s Supper on Holy Thursday, the
Crucifixion on Good Friday that is overcome by the
light of Christ and His victory over death at the Easter
Vigil. The choir is a 30 member SATB group whose
members range in age from teens through 80-something.
You do not need to be able to sight-read to become a
member. All are welcome to join this wonderful group
of singers. For more information contact Jane O’Keefe

Today’s Reflection
During this holy season, we examine and reflect upon our lives and call on God for aid. There are times in our lives—and this may be one of them—when we feel alone, abandoned. We may ask, as the Chosen People did when thirsting in the desert, “Is the Lord in our midst or not?” As we grow weary crossing the deserts in our life, let us remember Jesus’ words: “I am with you always.”
