ICE MELT

ST. JANE FRANCES DE CHANTAL CHURCH BETHESDA, MARYLAND

CARPOOLING WITH CHRIST "Carpooling with Christ," a holy hour with Eucharistic Adoration, will take place each Wednesday of Lent from 2:00 – 2:45 pm in the church. All are welcome to come in for a few minutes of prayer, or to stay the entire time! CONFESSIONS This Lenten season, each Catholic parish in the Archdiocese of Washington will have confessions available every Wednesday evening from 6:45-8:00 pm. If you have been reluctant to come to the sacrament, have been away for some time or just found it difficult to get to a Saturday afternoon confession time, this is a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with Christ and His Church. Learn more at www.thelightison.org. Confessions are also heard at St. Jane each Saturday, 3:45-4:45 pm. SOUP, SAINTS, & STATIONS Join us on Fridays of Lent, beginning in Caulfield Hall with a lite meal of soup and bread served at 6:30 pm, and a presentation on a saint beginning at 6:50 pm. March 2: St. John Paul II with George Weigel; March 9: St. Jane Frances de Chantal with Sr. Mada-anne Gell, VHN; March 16: Blessed Chiara Badano with Fr. Burney; and March 23: Sts. Louis and Zelie Martin with Deacon Bob Vince. The evening concludes with Stations of the Cross at 7:30 pm in church. CRS RICE BOWL: ENCOUNTER CESIA We encounter Cesia in Nicaragua, where, despite a lack of economic opportunity, young people pursue their dreams by building businesses to better their lives. How can you work to improve the lives of others this Lent? How can you support those, worldwide, who are forced to flee their homes to find safety or better opportunities? Visit crsricebowl.org for more. 40 DAYS FOR LIFE: BETHESDA CAMPAIGN 40 Days for Life Bethesda Campaign continues through Palm Sunday (March 25). 40 Days for Life is a pro-life organization which effectively employs prayer, fasting, and peaceful vigil outside facilities around the world to save unborn babies and help their mothers, close abortion facilities and convert abortion center workers. 40 Days for Life is currently conducting a campaign outside LeRoy Carhart’s late-term abortion clinic at the Wildwood Medical Center (10401 Old Georgetown Road). Signs are available in the parish office for those who want to join other pro-lifers in the peaceful vigil in front of the Wildwood Medical Center. For more information, call Lisa Tennant (301-897-5412).

Come support our school and see the winning projects in the junior high grades. SONGS ACROSS AMERICA The fourth grade classes performed their annual Songs Across America show this past week for their parents in the evening, and the school children during the day. Dressed in blue jeans and tie-dye t-shirts, and waving flags, they performed patriotic songs such as the Star Spangled Banner and You're a Grand Old Flag. They rattled off the states' names in alphabetical order as well as all of the state capitals. In between the songs, fourth grade students recited the history of how each state got its name. Students noted that some of the states had French, British, or Native American names. ANNUAL SPELLING BEE Congratulations to sixth grader, Meaghan Quirk for winning the 2018 St. Jane de Chantal School spelling bee! There was tough competition between the 27 class finalists representing 3rd-8th grades. Seventh grade student, Paolo Rivero took third place, leaving eighth-grader Isabella Totia and Meaghan Quirk to battle it out for first place. After too many rounds to count, Meaghan won. Meaghan will represent St. Jane at the regional spelling bee in March.

of myself — also sacrificial? (See Romans 8:32)

During the season of Lent “we are subject to numerous temptations. Each of us knows the difficulties we have to face. And it is sad to note that, when faced with the ever-varying circumstances of our daily lives, there are voices raised that take advantage of pain and uncertainty; the only thing they aim to do is sow distrust. If the fruit of faith is charity – as Mother Teresa often used to say – then the fruit of distrust is apathy and resignation. Distrust, apathy and resignation: these are demons that deaden and paralyze the soul of a believing people.”

Pope Francis, homily, 14 February 2018,

Basilica of Santa Sabina.
