March 24th, 2019 - Third Sunday of Lent

From Fr. Suresh

TODAY’S READINGS First Reading: Exodus 3:1-8a, 13-15

Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 103:1-2, 3-4, 6-7, 8, 11

Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 10:1-6, 10-12

Gospel: Luke 13:1-9

GOSPEL ACCLAMATION “Repent, says the Lord; the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” - Matthew 4:17

3RD SUNDAY OF LENT… A GENTLE NUDGE FOR MERCY There once was a person who had a fig tree planted in his orchard, and when he came in search of fruit on it [he] found

none." We live in a results-driven society. It can be easy to put pressure on ourselves to succeed. If we're not keeping

up with the perceived "good life" of those around us, we feel anxious and disappointed. Some of the Gospel stories

about fruitfulness can seem to play out in this fashion. "For three years now I have come in search of fruit on this fig

tree but have found none. So cut it down." The message seems to be clear. Abide in God and bear fruit! Stand apart

from God and be barren. But what happens when we're trying, but the growth we wanted doesn't seem to be coming

our way? What if it feels like life just isn't bearing fruit?

This Sunday, Jesus gives us a sign of hope. "[The gardener] said to him in reply, 'Sir, leave it for this year also ? it may

bear fruit in the future." How quick we can be to judge! Perhaps you started out Lent with high hopes and big ideas

for getting closer to God. Maybe things haven't gone exactly like you thought. It can be easy to lose patience with our

failures or slow growth. We shouldn't be too quick to assume that God has given up on us. He hasn't.

The same ideas apply to those around us. Perhaps we're the planter of the fig tree. We expect a certain amount of

growth from someone in our life, and they just aren't measuring up. Let today's Gospel be a gentle nudge for mercy.

As Lent continues to unfold, be patient with yourself and those around you. Wait for God to provide the growth.

LENTEN PRAYER

O God, bless us during this season

of spiritual renewal. Fill our minds

and our hearts with love, that we

may be a sign of Jesus to all those

living in our midst. Amen.

LENT— GUIDELINES FOR FASTING AND ABSTINENCE

Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are both days of fasting and abstinence. We are also obliged to observe abstinence

(but not fasting) on all Fridays during Lent. According to Canon Law, the law of fasting binds all Catholics from the

completion of their 18th birthday to the day after their 59th birthday.

The law of fasting allows only one full meal a day, but does not prohibit taking some food in the morning and eve-

ning, or the full meal may be taken in the evening instead of midday. The quantity of food taken at the two lighter

meals should not exceed the quantity at the full meal. The drinking of ordinary liquids does not break the fast.

The law of abstinence binds persons from the completion of their 14th year, so the law of abstinence applies to Catho-

lics from the day after their 14th birthday and onward throughout life.

The law of abstinence forbids the consumption of meat, but not of eggs, milk products or condiments made of animal

fat. Abstinence does NOT include meat juices and liquid foods made from meat. Thus, such foods as chicken broth,

consommé, soups cooked or flavored with meat, meat gravies or sauces, as well as seasonings or condiments made

from animal fat are NOT forbidden. So it is permissible to use margarine and lard. Even bacon drippings which con-

tain little bits of meat may be poured over lettuce as seasoning.

For further information see sections 1250-1253 of Canon Law.

BLOOD DONATIONS DURING LENT

Reminder to all those who registered to give

blood: it takes place next Saturday, March 30th,

between 9:00 am and 1:00 pm. You will be

NEW MULTI-PURPOSE SPORTS HALL

Building and Growing Together for Our Future!

Plans are well underway for this spectacular

new addition for our School and Parish, with

the goal to have it open by September 2020,

the 50th anniversary year of our school! The

two-storey facility will provide the school with

over 23,000 square feet of much-needed added

space. It will feature a large basketball court,

which can be used for other activities such as

netball, volleyball, badminton, discos and

gymnastics. The building will also add ten

classrooms, one of which will be utilized for

drama classes. Other features include new changing rooms, a concession stand, PE and security offices, and separate

bathrooms for adults, staff and children. A large cistern will be included, so that water in the building can be recycled.

It will also have an elevator, providing easy access to the second floor for persons who have special needs. MJM has

also designed the facility to serve as a hurricane shelter. The exterior of the building will feature a covered drop-off

lane, landscaping, and more than twenty additional parking spaces.

Any individuals, families, or corporations who wish to support this project may contact the St. Ignatius School or

Church offices for further information and to obtain a donor packet. We are accepting one-time donations, or

monthly payments over the next 18 months. The lobby of the new building will feature a spectacular donor tree,

so that all of the top contributors to the project will be on permanent display. Thank you for your support!

ST. IGNATIUS/DOROTHY RICE SCHOLARSHIP FUND —

NOW IN OUR 22ND YEAR ASSISTING FAMILIES WITH SCHOOL TUITION!

The St. Ignatius/Dorothy Rice Memorial Scholarship Fund assists families who are not able to

afford the full tuition at St. Ignatius School (which averages about $9500 per year). Each year

we help to keep children in our school who otherwise couldn’t afford a Catholic Education.

Over the past 21 years we have assisted nearly 180 children from over 120 families!

The average child in this programme receives about $200-$300 per month off the fees, paid by

the scholarship fund (directly to the school bursar), while the child’s family pays the rest.

In return for the help, the families actively contribute to the school and parish in a variety of ways (helping out with

fundraisers, chaperoning school trips, cleaning the grounds, assisting at sports days, serving on committees, etc.).

How you can help:

Donation envelopes are available at the front entrance of St. Ignatius Church or in the church office. Donations can

be dropped in the collection, sent in by mail or dropped off at the church office. If paying by cheque, please make

your donations payable to: ST. IGNATIUS, and in the memo, please indicate “Scholarship Fund”.

On-line transfers can be done through Butterfield Bank… contact May in the parish office for details.

Perhaps your company would like to assist with regular contributions OR a one-off donation?

Please consider the Scholarship Fund from time to time when doing your charitable work throughout the year!

Many thanks to all those who have contributed to the fund during recent months and during the past several years!

For further information, please contact Jeremy Rice in the Parish Office or via e-mail: [email protected].
