Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time Pastor s Corner: A comma or a period. How do you live life?

We may say we view our lives as a comma in that it is always unfolding, but do we live as such? Have we got stuck in a rut? Are we carrying baggage around that is preventing us from moving forward?

Turn away from sin we will hear on Ash Wednesday. What is it we need to turn away from that is putting a period in our lives?

Tuesday, Thursday, Friday 8:00 AM Eucharistic Adoration Wednesdays Noon 6:30 PM Chapel (except February 28 will be in church) Stations of the Cross Fridays at 7:00 PM Chapel February 16, 23, March 2,

2 Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time Pastor s Corner: A comma or a period. How do you live life? After Gracie Allen s death, her grieving husband, George Burns, found among her papers this quote: Never place a period where God has placed a comma. We may say we view our lives as a comma in that it is always unfolding, but do we live as such? Have we got stuck in a rut? Are we carrying baggage around that is preventing us from moving forward? As the Season of Lent approaches l encourage you to look at the areas of your life where you are not growing and make your Lenten resolution one of hearing God calling you to new life. Turn away from sin we will hear on Ash Wednesday. What is it we need to turn away from that is putting a period in our lives?

3 Our Lady Queen of Peace Page 4 Thank you for your generous support of our Parish, and your help with the needs of the community through your ongoing participation in our various ministries. Actual Goal Difference Sunday, Jan 28: $ 7, $ 9, $ 1,423.50) Sunday Y-T-D: $304, $279, $25, EUCHARISTIC ADORATION: The following is taken from Holy Communion and Worship of the Eucharist Outside Mass #80. When the faithful adore Christ present in the sacrament, they should remember that this presence derives from the sacrifice and has as its purpose both sacramental and spiritual communion. Therefore, the devotion prompting the faithful to visit the blessed sacrament draws them into an even deeper share in the paschal mystery and leads them to respond gratefully to the gift of him who through his humanity constantly pours divine life into members of his Body. Abiding with Christ the Lord, they enjoy his intimate friendship and pour out their hearts before him for themselves and for those dear to them and they pray for the peace and salvation of the world. CHATHOLIC CHARITIES: The 2018 Catholic Charities Annual Appeal will take place next weekend in our parish.
