Freedom brings responsibility. Our actions have
consequences that sometimes bring suffering to
ourselves or others. God is always patient and
loving. God hears the cry of His people. God’s
gifts of repentance and mercy are freely given,
but we must freely accept and use them.
“Sir, leave it for this year also, and I shall cultivate the ground around it and fertilize it; it may bear fruit in the
future.” ----- Luke 13:8-9 First Reading from Exodus 3:1-8a, 13-15 God appears in the burning bush.
Second Reading from Corinthians 10:1-6, 10-12
Learn from others’ mistakes.
Gospel from Luke 13:1-9 If you do not repent, you will perish.

WORKING WONDERS FOR THOSE IN OUR
COMMUNITY...
“At Mary Centre, the residents of our
homes have developed friendships, yet they
maintain their own individuality,” says
Denise Tremblett, Program Manager,
“Although some of their relatives may have
passed on, they love to remain active with
healthy recreational activities and
visiting regularly with the rest of their
friends and family members. We enjoy
cooking and providing for them so they can
remain at home here and enjoy their lives.
We are extremely grateful that ShareLife
donors have helped to make a difference
for these very special people!”
Last year, over 1,500 people with special
needs received outreach services from
ShareLife-supported agencies.
Sunday March 13, 2016 is ShareLife Sunday
Please give generously. You can work
wonders!
