St. Matthew Parish Lenten Mission

presented by Fr. Ralph Intranuovo
All are welcome - invite family and friends
The Mission will be begin on Monday through Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. On Tuesday, March 9th, there will be a Penance Service included with the opportunity for individual confessions. On Thursday morning, March 11th, the mission will conclude with an Anointing Service at the 8:30 a.m. Mass.
A message from Fr. Ralph:
The Mass calls us all - lay people and ordained - to "full, active, conscious participation." True listening is full, active and conscious. Singing, processing, interceding for the world, taking into our hands and into our bodies the Body and Blood of Christ, going out into the world to be the Body of Christ demands our full, active and conscious participation.
How can we begin to become such Catholics? Lectio Divina (prayerful reading) is an ancient way of reading biblical or liturgical texts that is especially helpful in preparing for the liturgy. Ordinarily reading is for information but Lectio Divina is reading for formation. Readings are meant to inform us as to where we are in relation to the scriptures. How do we become more fully people of prayer and praise?
