Three Part Series: “Theological Virtues”
(April through May)

Thursday, April 20th: PART 1 - Faith Time: 1:30-3:00 PM
Facilitated by Grace Conte Fee: $35 per person/per session
Or pay in advance for all three sessions for $90
Faith: On Being Catholic
Our Catholic faith makes possible a belief in the care of a loving God so strong and deep that we can lay claim to this belonging as precious children of God. Our faithful prayers are cries of this recognition and this special love. Come celebrate and experience what our faith has to offer us.

Thursday, April 27th: PART 2 – Hope Time: 1:30-3:00 PM
Facilitated by Sister Gerrie Contento, M.P.F Fee: $35 per person/per session

Hope is not a Pollyanna-ish, nor pie in the sky spiritual practice. Hope expands our joy during the good times of life, and it carries us peacefully during the challenges of life.
Join us for this presentation on Hope which will include time for reflection, prayer, and discussion. Sister Gerrie will incorporate the thoughts of Pope Francis from his Apostolic letter, "Rejoice and be Glad" and meditations and practices from Joyce Rupp’s book Constant Hope.
Thursday, May 4th: PART 3 – Love Time: 1:30-3:00 PM
Facilitated TBA Fee: $35 per person/per session

Love is not just a word, nor an idea, but a life -- a lifestyle of living for others, wanting and doing good for others as St. Paul says, “Love does not seek its own interests.”

LENTEN REFLECTION for today:

"The manna ceased. No longer was there manna for the Israelites." Joshua 5:12.

"Whoever is in crisis is a new creation: The old things have passed
away and new things have come." 2 Corinthians 5:17.

A severe famine had struck." Luke 15:14.

"Let us celebrate with a feast because this son of mine was dead and has come to life again." Luke 15:24.

Today's readings ask us to contemplate loss, hunger, change, celebration and reinventing oneself. Reinventing oneself not in a secular sense by changing your image, weight, look, or career, think of Madonna, or Adele; but becoming what Christ has called you to be – your authentic self. You are made in the image and likeness of God –a new creation in Christ as St. Paul describes in 2 Corinthians.

What is in store for you in our reflection for the Third Sunday of Lent?
This theme of remembering...Do you have spiritual amnesia? Have I
become complacent? Do I remember the blessings God has given me? Do I
think I have arrived and am fine just as I am? Have I forgotten how
much I need God’s grace? Do I admit there have been times I have
missed the mark and sinned?
