LENT AND PRAYER| by Sr. Barbara Rund, OP Ash Wednesday’s Gospel provides three tools for us to Privately: Jesus prays by himself. He is led by the Holy use during Lent: prayer, fasng and almsgiving. Lent is Spirit into the desert or into the mountains for mes of an opportunity to use these tools to foster spiritual prayer. Jesus had a habit of praying throughout the growth, transformaon and change in our lives. This night, this became well known. People seek Jesus out; week, we will begin our reflecon with prayer. they expect to find him praying. No wonder he asks his followers to pray always. How do you pray? In the Gospels, the apostles ask Jesus to teach them to pray. They looked to Jesus who was Reflect on one way you can deepen your prayer life and known for his prayer to God. Catholic tradion has do it this week. always aempted to lay hold of the example of Jesus. The early Church wrote down the words and deeds of Jesus that they felt were most important. Among these Next Week: Lent and Fasng we find clear evidence of Jesus as a person of prayer. The four Gospels surface different forms of prayer in the life of Jesus. They reveal four places that Jesus prayed: Pilgrimage with Fr. Tim Wezner in the temple for worship; in the synagogue for daily morning and evening prayer with the community; in small groups with his apostles, disciples, friends and family; and, in private by himself. Temple: The Gospel of Luke begins and ends at the temple in Jerusalem. Jesus is in Jerusalem at the me of great fesvals. He parcipates in songs, psalms, scripture readings, offerings of sacrifice and other forms of worship. It is interesng to note that Jesus has many harsh words to say about the leaders of the temple, yet he never has any problem with the prayer of the temple. “Today we had an early morning to try and beat rush hour traffic out of Amman to head to our first site, the Jordan River, at the tradional spot that R Synagogue: Jesus was a devout Jew. He gives praise to commemorates the Bapsm of Jesus (Mahew 3:13 17; Mark 1:9R11; Luke 3:21R22)”. God and remembers the ancient Shema or creed from Deuteronomy 6:4: “Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord.” Each day Jesus prays in the morning and Fr. Tim Wezner is traveling through the Holy Land, and evening with the community. He sings hymns and you can follow him online via his blog!

FROM YOUR PASTOR | by Msgr. Anthony M. Tocco Dear Friends, the liturgy here at St. Hugo's, they remove the opportunity for them to understand that Sacrifice is the As we enter into the Season of Lent, I would like to share very heart of our religion. It begins with the sacrifice of some insights with you. We live in a culture that has, by Jesus Himself on the Cross. The Cross then leads to the and large, wandered far from the teachings of Jesus. We Altar of Sacrifice where the Eucharist is celebrated every know today that many people, even in our churches, have single day. In the Eucharist, we are given the opportunity walked away from objecve moral principles that have to receive the Body and Blood of Jesus Himself. Having served us faithfully, not simply for a few generaons, but been fed by Jesus in this Holy Sacrament, we are then for more than two thousand years. Catholics and former called to go out into our world and be Eucharist for Catholics alike have forgoen that it is o en faithfulness others. This giving of ourselves, as Jesus gave Himself, is to a tradion, passed on from parents to children, which the first and final purpose of religion. help prevent us from being swallowed up by a secular society. The result is that many of our young people are completely ignorant of those principles which would have I invite all of you to examine the quality of your faith. If guided them in the past. It should be no surprise to any of you aend regularly, then parcipate more acvely in the us that we experience more crime, more violence, less prayer and music of our worship. Come on me and, respect for life, and more selfishness in so many of our unless you have an emergency, stay unl the last verse of instuons. The result is that a good part of our society, the hymn is sung. If you aend only at Christmas and worldwide, has lost its moral compass. Easter, I invite you to change that habit and make a determined effort to join us for worship each and every week. We are not complete as a family without you. If This change in our culture did not happen suddenly. It is you do not come at all, especially because of some past not difficult to understand. It happened because formerly hurt or anger, turn your heart to forgiving those of us faithful people have casually walked away from the who may have caused the hurt in the first place and begin religion that centered them spiritually.

This has led to a relavisc society in which many value selfRindulgences beyond all We know that many Chrisans in other parts of our else. world, men women and children, are being martyred.

It is a Season that challenges every man, woman every one of us. and child, to return to God. For Catholics, it clearly means a return to church and a return to regular aendance at Mass. May God give us all that Holy Grace. Cheers in the Lord! I want to say a word to parents who leave the church and Msgr. Anthony M.

LIBRARY NEWS ALTAR GUILD HAPPENINGS
THE WORLD AT WAR Acclaimed BBC Documentary: Now in Our Library! Many Catholics know lile about the Second World War, in which by 50 to 85 million people (according to Wikipedia) were brutally killed. The “War to End Wars” was predicted by Our Lady of Fama, who appeared to three children in 2017. She revealed “the (first world) war is going to end. But if they do not stop offending God, another and worse one will begin in the reign of Pius XI. When you will see a night illumined by an unknown light you know that this is the great sign that God gives you that he is going to punish the world by means of war, hunger and persecuon of the Holy Father.” Our Blessed Mother promised to defeat communism through her intercession but people must make atonement to God for the sins of mankind by repenng, changing their lives, fasng and prayer. Mary recommended praying the rosary. Jacinta and Francisco, who have been declared saints, and Sr. Lucia, who died recently, whose cause for sainthood is in progress, were most diligent in prayer and fasng to prevent war. Many people do not know that the Catholic Church was the primary target for annihilaon by communist naons because they feared her influence against their comming atrocies in the process of achieving their goal of absolute power. When MARY’S WAY OF THE CROSS World War II broke out, newly elected Pius XII had already Thursday, March 22nd, 6:30 PM, Chapel warned about the growing threat of Hitler and realized, like Winston Churchill, that nothing would stop him.

STEWARDSHIP THOUGHTS A theme of sacrifice connects today’s First and Second Readings. In the Book of Genesis, Sarah and Abraham are blessed in their elderly years with their only son, Isaac. God tests Abraham by asking him to sacrifice Isaac. As Abraham is about to comply, a messenger from heaven stops him. To upli the Chrisan community in Rome, St. Paul reminds his brothers and sisters that God sacrificed His only Son for the good of all. In St. Mark’s Gospel account of the Transfiguraon, God the Father clearly acknowledges Jesus as His Son. Jesus then alludes to Peter, James, and John of His death and Resurrecon. Our own giving of the “first fruits” of our me, talent, and treasure back to God, to our parish, and to our neighbor, are solid acts of Chrisan charity. Sacrifice brings great peace, joy, and grace to those who embrace stewardship as a way of life. This Lent, reflect on how you can use your GodRgiven gi s as a teacher, reader, Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist, evangelist, administrator, leader, or other minister in your parish or school to build the Kingdom of God. © Archdiocese of Detroit WWW.STHUGO.ORG 14 ST.

GOSPEL | MK 9: 2T10 Jesus took Peter, James, and John and led them up a high mountain apart by themselves. And he was transfigured before them, and his clothes became dazzling white, such as no fuller on earth could bleach them. Then Elijah appeared to them along with Moses, and they were conversing with Jesus. Then Peter said to Jesus in reply, "Rabbi, it is good that we are here! Let us make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." He hardly knew what to say, they were so terrified. Then a cloud came, casng a shadow over them; from the cloud came a voice, "This is my beloved Son. Listen to him." GOSPEL MEDITATION Suddenly, looking around, they no longer saw anyone but Jesus alone with them. How are your Lenten resoluons?
