Thank You! ================== Just to let you know: One of our dear parishioner, Lucille Gardunio has moved to a Care Center in Colorado Springs. We are sure she would be happy to hear from you. Here is her address: Lucille Gardunio c/o Laurel Care Center 920 S. Chelton Street Colorado Springs, Colo ============================ Pray for the Deceased Chris Clapper (Brother of Jody LiVecchi) Our prayers and condolences to the family and friends of Chris. May he rest in the peace of the Lord. ================== GIVE GOD THE GLORY A curious feature of the first half of Mark s Gospel is the pattern of Jesus working a miracle, then telling the recipient of the miracle to keep still about it. Many theories have been offered: Mark is setting the stage for the great secret revealed when Peter will proclaim Jesus the Messiah at Caesarea Philippi; more skeptical commentators offer that Jesus, fully aware of human nature, knew that the way to spread the news was to tell people to keep it secret. The insight into this secret-keeping that serves us well, however, is that Jesus was initiating his public ministry according to the pattern that Paul describes. He was doing it for the glory of God not for his own benefit, but for that of all. Paul would later write in Philippians that Jesus humbled himself to become like us. And we see this humility at work in today s healing of the leper. Jesus is trying to reveal the presence of God s reign among the people, not so that he himself might receive the glory, but so that God would be glorified through him. Imitating this pattern, which Paul encourages the Jewish and Greek Christian factions in Corinth to do, still serves us well today.

If interested, come to the parish office at 6:30 on Thursdays. If you have questions, call Norm Stegeman at PREPARE YOUR HEART FOR LENT: Virtues are formed by prayer. Prayer preserves temperance. Prayer suppresses anger. Prayer prevents emotions of pride and envy. Prayer draws into the soul the Holy Spirit, and raises man to Heaven. St. Ephrem of Syria Importance Prayer is the breath of the spiritual life. Without it, your soul suffocates and dies. That s why Jesus and the great saints of the Church were so urgent in their calls for us to pray always and everywhere. St. Paul commanded us to pray without ceasing. Jesus taught us to pray always and not lose heart. Prayer is so important because, whether or not we realize it, we are essentially beggars before God. Everything we need to be virtuous men has to be given to us. We will never be holy without grace, and there is no other way to obtain grace than through prayer. Do you need courage? Ask for it. Do you need humility? Ask for it. Do you need to be pure in a world filled with temptation? Ask for it. Are you trying to overcome an explosive temper? Ask for patience. If you don t ask, you won t receive it s that simple. No matter what else you are planning to do for Lent, PRAYER should be FIRST on the list.
