The Third Sunday of Lent March 15, 2020 THOUGHTS FROM THE TOWER from Father Donald Two weeks ago I spoke about our having care for one another during this Corona virus epidemic. Last week I addressed the very specific regulations our diocese has mandated for all parishes to follow during this time. A few of you suggested that I put this message in print as well and so this is the theme of this week’s Thoughts from the Tower.
