Views from Fr. Larry Pichard, Pastor

In addition to Confessions next Thursday and Friday evenings and Saturday afternoon, all parishes in the Diocese of Dallas will offer a special evening of the Sacrament of Reconciliation next Wednesday. Most parishes will start at 7:00 pm, but because we have so many parishioners at St. Francis, we will start at 6:00 pm. (The regular 6:30 pm Mass on Wednesday will be cancelled.) Please remember that since there will be long lines, don’t look upon that opportunity as counselling or spiritual direction. All you need to do is to confess your major sins. The Church has always taught that mortal sins must be confessed in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, but venial sins can be forgiven when we pray the Penitential Rite of the Mass, by saying the Lord’s Prayer, by reciting the “Lord, I am not Worthy” prayer before Communion, and certainly by the reception of the Body and the Blood of the Lord. Join us for Mercy Monday when Father Stephen Sanchez will speak to us about the theme “Mercy to the Outsider.” Fr. Stephen is a Carmelite priest in Dallas. The Carmelites were founded shortly before the time of St. Francis of Assisi around the turn of the 12th century. Although they originated at Mount Carmel located in the Holy Land in the far northwest corner, right by the Syrian border and overlooking the Mediterranean, they had to flee because of Muslim threats (sounds familiar!), and they resettled in Europe (sounds familiar!). Dedicated to contemplation, community and service, they have produced great saints and spiritual writers such as St. Teresa de Avila, St. John of the Cross, St Thérèse of Lisieux, and Sister Lucia to whom Our Lady of Fatima appeared. Fr. Stephen will draw upon such wisdom as he speaks to us of God’s mercy. Next weekend is Palm Sunday! What? Where did Lent go? Plan on joining us for Holy Week, the most spiritual time of the year. If you didn’t make much progress in Lent, Holy Week is the time to draw near to Jesus.

Mercy to the Outsider

Visiones del Párroco, Pbro. Larry Pichard

Además de las Confesiones del próximo jueves y viernes por la tarde y el sábado de 3:30p.m. a 4:30p.m. que tenemos aquí en San Francisco, ofreceremos como todas las parroquias de la Diócesis de Dallas, una noche especial del Sacramento de la Reconciliación el próximo miércoles. La mayoría de las parroquias comenzarán a las 7:00p.m. pero, porque tenemos tantos feligreses en San Francisco nosotros comenzaremos a las 6:00 pm. (Se cancelará la Mi-sa regular de 6:30p.m. ese miércoles.) Por favor recuerde que debido a que habrá largas filas, les pedimos no tomen esta oportunidad como orientación o dirección espiritual. Todo lo que necesita hacer es confesar sus pecados morta-les. La Iglesia siempre ha enseñado que los pecados morta-les deben ser confesados en el Sacramento de la Reconcilia-ción, pero los pecados veniales pueden ser perdonados cuando rezamos el acto penitencial de la Misa, rezando el Padre Nuestro, recitando la oración antes de la Comunión "Señor, yo no soy digno…", y sin duda al recibir del Cuerpo y la Sangre del Señor.

Acompáñenos el próximo Lunes Misericordioso, cuando el Padre Zach Webb nos hablará sobre el tema "Dios quiere Misericordia, no Sacrificios". El Padre Zach Webb no necesita presentación. El Padre Stephen Sanchez, quien dará el tema en inglés “Misericordia con el extranje-ro” es un sacerdote Carmelita de Dallas. El próximo fin de semana es Domingo de Ramos! ¿Qué? ¿Dónde quedó la Cuaresma? Únanse a nosotros para celebrar la Semana Santa, el momento más espiritual del año. Si usted no pudo acercarse a Jesús como hubiera queri-do durante la cuaresma, la Semana Santa es el momento indicado para hacerlo.

No regular Adoration 7:00—9:00 p.m. at Saint Francis.

WEDNESDAY 16 AND 23 6:00 p.m.—9:00 p.m. Bishop Farrell designed this opportunity for Confessions at every church in our diocese this even-

ing mainly for those who have been away from the church for a long time. We do not want those coming back to the church to be discouraged from long wait times for reconciliation, so we are asking our regular parishioners to please attend one of our other Confession times on all Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays of Lent. We have a limited number of priests hearing Confessions on this night.

HOLY THURSDAY No Confessions today. 8:30 a.m. Morning Prayer in the Chapel. No 6:30 a.m. or 8:30 a.m. Mass. 7:00 p.m. Mass of the Lord’s Supper (Bilingual). After Mass, we invite you to spend an hour with the Lord. Adoration

will take place in our Chapel immediately following Mass until midnight.

sion, the veneration of the cross and Communion. This will be followed by a Passion play in Spanish, in the west park-ing lot.

No 8:30 a.m. Mass. 9:00 a.m. Blessing of Easter Baskets in the Chapel. 8:30 p.m. Easter Vigil in the Church. According to Church regulations this service cannot begin till dark. It includes

the service of the lighting of the fire and the Paschal Candle, the long proclamation of the Word, the sacraments of ini-tiation of catechumens and candidates for full communion with the Catholic Church, and the liturgy of the Eucharist. It is a long service—3 hours—so if you are looking for a quick Easter Mass, don’t come to this one! But if you want to witness the most beautiful liturgy of the year, come and really celebrate the Resurrection! . This Mass will be bilingual.

EASTER SUNDAY: Church: 6:30 a.m. Bilingual, 8:00 a.m. in English, 9:45 a.m. in English, 11:30 p.m. in English, 1:15p.m. in Spanish, 5:00 p.m. Youth Mass in English, 7:00 p.m. in Spanish.

diverted to the Great Hall for simultaneous Masses. In order to avoid huge crowds, you may want to proceed initially to the Great Hall for Mass.
