Why is Jesus so submissive in His Passion?
There is only one reason: Love. Love for the Father and love for mankind, whom He wants to reconcile with the Father. Only infinite love can explain the sufferings and humiliation accepted by Jesus. While His divinity hides itself, and almost seems to abandon Him, Jesus who is both human and divine, suffers in His human nature. Doing so, Jesus has given meaning to human suffering, He has made it meritorious: if accepted for the love of God and offered up for the salvation of the world.
Jesus is the innocent victim, and He attains the high point of His mission into the world when it is His hour for which He longed. As we look at Jesus on the cross we confront the mystery of suffering and death and the paradox that suffering with Jesus leads to glory and happiness. Our task now is to follow Him during Holy Week. He says, “If you wish to be my disciple. Take up your cross daily and follow me.” These words are addressed to you and me.
In the Acts of the Apostles (5:41) it is said that the Apostles rejoiced that they could suffer something for Jesus. They found joy in their sufferings because they saw meaning in it. They were sharing in the sufferings of Christ and had hope of eternal salvation.
So during this Passiontide, let us imitate them!

Feast of St. Joseph, March 19
6:00pm High Mass The model of domestic virtues and humble daily toil, the guardian of chaste souls, the protector of Christians homes, and patron of the Oratory, St. Joseph, foster-father of the Child Jesus, faithfully and humbly carried out the difficult and glorious mission entrusted to him. St. Joseph, Pray for us.
St.Benedict,Abbot,March21Patron of the Institute of Christ the King
Mass at 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. ~ Plenary Indulgence ~
At all the turning points of history God raises up great saints to ensure the fulfillment of the church’s divine mission for the souls of men. St. Benedict is a classic example of this.
St. Benedict was well-known for living in a cave as a hermit. During this period he made a close study of the Scriptures, and for the rest of his life, in complete self-dedication, gave all that God asked. “The finger of God had only to point, and he followed whatever the cost.” The cave was a hidden retreat upon a barren mountainside, its whereabouts known only to a single friend who brought him food in secret, lowering it by rope over the mountain edge. After three years his popularity for spiritual guidance became widely known and he was chosen by the monks of a neighboring monastery to be their abbot.
Subject to the jealous persecution of a local priest, in 527 he traveled to Monte Cassino, 85 miles southeast of Rome, on the summit of which stood an altar to Apollo; there he tore down the pagan shrine and established the greatest and most famous of all monasteries, which became the home of the Benedictine Order. When he died in 543 there were 14 Benedictine communities, and by the 14th century there were over 30,000.
At Monte Cassino he wrote his great Rule which combined the Roman genius and the monastic wisdom of the Christian East. He imbued the monastic life with a new leaven that contributed to the formation of Christendom in the Middle Ages. A monk was to be a soldier of God, “a member of a spiritual garrison holding duty for Christ in a hostile world,” and to be always on duty. It was a great and happy brotherhood with a strong family unity, so that wherever its members went they felt a common bond, and drew their strength from their home at Cassino, built upon the rock. He believed in the moral value of work; for idleness, he said, is hostile to the soul, and manual labor is part of the true pattern and glory of life. Thus work and study were joyfully intermingled, and each of his monasteries became a colony of God, a mission station with a civilizing influence for the dark night of Northern Europe.
From the Rule of St. Benedict: “Help those who are in trouble;” “Console the afflicted;” “Speak the truth from your heart as from your mouth;” “Attribute the good that you find in yourself to God, and not to yourself;” “Listen willingly to the Holy Scriptures;” “Honor those who are old;” “Love those who are younger;” “Pray for your enemies in the love of Christ.;” “Make peace, before the setting of the sun, with those from whom you have been separated by discord;” “And never despair of the mercy of God.”

CHILI DINNER WAS A HUGE SUCCESS About 130 - 150 people enjoyed the chili contest last Sunday. Thank
you to the 14 contestants who made 14 different DELICIOUS
chilis. It was very difficult to decide the best one! This year Cecilia
Ellis won 1st place with a white chicken chili; Caroline Moes won
2nd place with a simple red bean chili; and 3rd place was shared
by Rebecca Kanzenbach, Lori Ann Lasee, Tony Ellis, and Bonni
Kanzenbach. 36 signed up for the cribbage tournament this
year. After 3 games, the top scores were: 1st - Mike Kanzenbach,
2nd - Rebecca Kanzenbach, and 3rd - Chuck Jessel. This year we
lacked an adult to supervise a checkers tournament, but the kids had
fun playing each other without a prize. Thanks to all who helped with
the serving and cleaning up of this popular event. God bless you!!!
We look forward to the 4th annual chili contest next Spring!
