Jesus wlill give us back our faces, and we will show forth his glory.
.. hen I was a child, I saw a picture of Lazarus , at the tomb, his face completely bound by a cloth. It scared me badly~the figures looking toward Lazarus were pulling away in fear or disgust. Unable to see his face, they lost any sense of his humanity. \Vithout eyes, nose, and mouth, Lazarus had become the stuff of nightmares. Much later in life, I reflected on that picture and realized that death~both spiritual and physical-is like that. It robs us of our humanity. We become faceless, unknown to all but those who loved us. If we've committed grave sin, we might even lose those human relationships. But a second look at the picture revealed the steady figure of Jesus holding the raised Lazarus in his gaze. He didn't turn away in fear. Rather, he continued to look at him with love, as a friend. Jesus, the face of love, is the only one who can confront the two things that make us faceless-that take our humanity from us: sin and death. Sin kills the soul and has the capacity to make us unrecognizable to others. Death kills the body and can take us from our loved ones. Jesus calls us forth from each of these. From sin, he calls us to conversion; from death, he calls us to eternal life. If we listen carefully, we can hear him call us by name to "come out." And then, with infinite love, he will ask those who love us to untie us and let us go. W Jesus wlill give us back our faces, and we will show forth his glory. He will give us back our faces, and we will show forth his glory. MARY KATHARINE DEELEY Isundaybulletin@/iguori,org lODAY'S READ,NGS ... Ez 37:12-14 .. Rom 8:8-11 ..

Tickets can be purchased at the door or by calling the office for information. All persons who have reached their 14th birthday are bound by the law of abstinence.

The current canonical discipline of penance for the United States, in addition to the general character of the Lenten season, may thus be summed up: Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are days of abstinence from meat and also days of fast; that is, limited to a single full meal. The other Fridays of Lent remain days of abstinence from meat. http://www.fwdioc.org!pages/e-bulletin-home 40 Cans For Lent Food Drive March 5 - April 19 Knights of Columbus is sponsoring "4Q Cans For Lent Food Drive."

Lenten Weekday On 3:14-20/ 91-92, 95 In 8:31-42 • Thursday APRIL 10 Occasions o f sin are people, places, or situations that can easily lead a person to sin or give them an opportunity to commit a sin . There are two types: remote and proximate (also called near). If the attraction is not strong or has only a small probability of leading to sin, the occasion is remote. Remote occasions of sin are always around us, and we have no obligation to try to avoid them. If the attraction is powerful or the probability of its leading to sin is great, the occasion is called proximate. St. Alphonsus suggested that if a person sins four out of ten times in a given situation, that situation should be regarded as a proximate occasion of sin. Proximate or near occasions of sin are further classified as necessary or voluntary. A necessary proximate occasion cannot be avoided or can be avoided only with great difficulty, for example, an occasion associated with doing one's job or being in prison. A voluntary proximate occasion is freely and voluntarily entered into. We must avoid voluntary proximate occasions of grave sin. Among the many means at our disposal for avoiding occasions of sin, the sacraments of reconciliation and Eucharist have pride of place. Prayer and self discipline also help. FR .
