FIRST SUNDAY IN LENT – February 21, 2021

Respect The Eucharist - With the Eucharist, God has given us everything! He has given us Himself!

How awesome! St. Peter Julian Eymard (1811-1868) had the Blessed Sacrament as the center around which his life revolved. He prayed that there should be a religious institute devoted to the Blessed Sacrament. In time, he formed the Congregation of the Priests of the Most Blessed Sacrament. They devoted themselves to Perpetual Adoration and were

joined by lay-brothers and the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament. On his deathbed, St. Peter gave this reply to a religious who asked for a final point of reflection: “I have nothing more

to tell you. You already have the Eucharist. What more do you want?” As Lent has just begun, we can come to the Eucharist more often, make visits to Church more often and

attend Eucharistic Adoration. “Come to Me… and I will refresh you” (Mt.11:28)

Prayer for our Troops

Almighty God and Father, hold our servicemen and women in your loving hands.

Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they

perform for us in our time and need. We ask this in the name of Jesus, Our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Saint Michael, the Archangel,

Please guide and protect our Police Officers, Correction Officers,

Firefighters, Emergency Personnel and First Responders

Do You Want to Fast This Lent? In the words of Pope Francis

Fast from hurting words ...and say kind words. Fast from sadness ...and be filled with gratitude.

Fast from anger ...and be filled with patience. Fast from pessimism ...and be filled with hope.

Fast from worries ...and have trust in God. Fast from complaints ...and contemplate simplicity.

Fast from pressures ...and be prayerful. Fast from bitterness ...and fill your hearts with joy.

Fast from selfishness ...and be compassionate to others. Fast from grudges ...and be reconciled.

Fast from words ...and be silent so you can listen.
