March 13: Dynamic Catholic, Alive: Putting Our Spiritual Lives in Order: “Let the one among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her” (Jn 8:7). Christ, of course, detests sin—he tells the adulterous woman to sin no more—but we must have our own spiritual lives in order before chastising others. It is easy to spot the sins of others, while ignoring our own sins. “Sin is an offense against reason, truth, and right conscience; it is failure in genuine love for God and neighbor caused by a perverse attachment to certain goods” (CCC, 1849). What step can you take this week to put your spiritual life in order? archstl.org/dynamic

From the Pastor’s Pen: How quickly the Lenten season passes. Next Sunday, March 20th, begins Holy Week. Weather permitting, the 11 AM mass will begin out in the grotto, with the blessing of palm and the triumphal entry into Jerusalem. Schedule for Holy Week: Confessions: Mon, Tues, Wed – after the 8am mass until ...… Wed. March 23rd: 2:30 pm – Passion of the Lord led by the 8th grade. (a variation on the stations) Holy Thursday: 8:00 a.m. Morning Prayer 10:00 a.m. Chrism Mass –at the Cathedral 7:00 p.m. Mass of the Lord’s Supper Adoration begins after Mass 11:45 p.m. Night Prayer Good Friday* 8:00 am: Morning Prayer 7:00 pm: Celebration of the Lord’s Passion Holy Saturday 8:00 am: Morning Prayer 8:00 pm: Easter Vigil Easter Sunday 8:00 a.m. Mass 11:00 a.m. Mass *NOTE:, there are no formal Stations of the Cross on Good Friday. Instead, the church will be open and the booklets there, from noon till 3:30… Finally, from Bishop Robert Barron, for those who feel outside of the life of grace: “You heard of my former way of life in Ju-daism,” Paul says with almost comical laconicism. “How I per-secuted the church of God beyond measure and tried to de-stroy it. Let those words sink in. Paul wasn’t just opposed to Christi-anity; he didn’t simply argue against it or ignore it. He actively, brutally, and violently persecuted it. The Acts of the Apostles speaks of Paul “breathing murder-ous threats” and seeking to bring Christians back in chains. He was, in a word, about as far from Christian faith as you could get. He was spiritually dead. Yet Christ brought him back to life: “When God, who from my mother’s womb had set me apart and called me through his grace, was pleased to reveal his Son to me…” (Galatians 1:15). God fashioned Paul’s Christian faith from nothing, and here’s the application for all of us: don’t give up hope, even when you are in desperate straits. Don’t surrender, even when things seem utterly void of meaning and hope. You may be on your last legs; you may have nothing left in the tank; you may be moving in the wrong direction. But don’t give up! God’s grace can bring you back and renew your life again.”
