Scripture Reflection (by the Dossie Family)

Third Sunday of Lent�

As we approach the midpoint of the Lenten season it is the perfect time for us to

ask ourselves: are we making progress in our Lenten plan? Whatever you chose to do this lent, maybe it is to pray more, or maybe you gave up something you really love to eat or drink � we need to make sure we are making progress and becoming better versions of ourselves. God doesn’t expect us to be perfect but he expects us to make progress each day to be more like him. ��

Today’s first reading talks about sin and slavery, not slavery as in owning another person but spiritual slavery and sinful habits. No one wants to be a slave to sin or under its power! We can experience freedom from sin if we confess our sins and pray for the strength to resist. The first reading also talks about the Ten Commandments which remind us how to act as Christians and will help us to choose the right path and not fall prey to sin!! If we try to follow the ten commandments we will become more like Jesus Christ and resist sinful habits.��

The Ten Commandments:�I am the LORD your God. You shall worship the Lord

your God and Him only shall you serve.�You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.�

Remember to keep holy the Sabbath day.�Honor your father and your mother.�

You shall not kill.�You shall not commit adultery.�

You shall not steal.�You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.�

You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife.�You shall not covet your neighbor’s goods.�

�

In today’s second reading we read about how the Jews demand signs and the Greeks look for wisdom. God had typically manifested himself to the Jews by miracles and wonders and this was how they knew God was talking to them. The Greeks were philosophers by nature and depended on human wisdom to prove religion. We as Catholics, by virtue of our faith, believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross for us and our sins without any signs or wisdom. ��

In the Gospel this week we learn about how Jesus cleared the Temple of the merchants and moneychangers and drove them out of the temple area. The Jews wanted a sign to show them his reasons and authority for doing this! John explains the signs as the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus. When Jesus said “Destroy this temple and in 3 days I will raise it up”, he was referring to his body and the resurrection. The Gospel this week calls us to examine the

quality of prayer and worship in our family life. ��

As we continue on our Lenten journey how can we become closer to God? First, confess your sins each day in prayer. “If we acknowledge our sins,” God will “cleanse us from every wrongdoing” (1 John 1:9). Second, pray for the strength to resist. Trust that God sees your efforts and blesses them with his own power to help us say now when temptation rises up within us. It makes sin lose its power over us and makes us stronger in our efforts to resist.��

“Lord, I don’t want to be a slave. Help me to be free.”�

Can you recite the Ten Commandments by heart? Several years ago a national US survey found more people could identify the ingredients in a Big Mac and name the children in the Brady Bunch television

show than recite the Ten Commandments. Of course, being able to recite them is not nearly as important as living a life in harmony with them. However, if we simply live to not break them then we are only living out half of our discipleship.��

Every commandment calls us to action beyond the simplicity of its words. We are not to kill, but we are also called to support life. We are not to steal, but we are also to share what we have freely. We are to have no other Gods before our God, but we also need to actively praise and glorify Him.��

To live a moral life is to do more than follow rules and laws. It is to actively live in a way that gives witness to the Good News of Jesus Christ. This way of living is stewardship. As we focus more on the penitential message of Lent, we need to not just reflect on what we have done wrong, but equally what we have failed to do. To be given so much by a loving God and not share those things with God and His people is wrong as well. Perhaps as we reflect on these things we might find ourselves adding something to our lives that will last for many Lenten seasons to come.�

What does the word “gospel” mean? ��

The word gospel derives from the Old English god�spell, meaning "good tidings" or "good news". It is a word�for�word translation of the Greek word euangelion (eu� "good", �angelion "message"). The Greek word "euangelion" is also the source of the term "evangelist" in English. The authors of the four canonical Christian gospels are known as the four evangelists.��

In Christianity, a gospel is generally one of four canonical (Canon comes from the Greek word kanon "rule") books of the New Testament that describe the birth, life, ministry, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus. The four canonical texts are the Gospels according to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, probably written between 65 and 100 AD. �

A Word from the Pastor

Dear Families,��When you think of Jesus, what picture comes to your mind? Whatever picture of Jesus comes to your mind, my guess is that you probably see him either in some serene pose, perhaps as a shepherd caring for his flock or in a

moment of suffering such as how he was when he faced the cross. I could be wrong, but I seriously doubt that your image of Jesus has him with a whip in one of his hands as he chases animals and people out of the temple, as he overturns tables where people are selling animals and converting money. And yet, this is the way Jesus is portrayed in this Sunday’s Gospel. He is a man on a mission, and he will not stand for his Father’s temple to be desecrated. Here we glimpse a side of Jesus we don’t see in other parts of the gospels. And yet we are seeing the true Jesus here, just as in other parts of the Bible. And we can learn much from him.��

If we focus on Jesus’ anger, I think we miss the point about what Jesus was doing in the temple. When we look at this closer, we discover that Jesus wasn’t acting just out of a moment of anger. Instead, he was cleansing the temple. Instead, he was casting sin out of God’s house… something he is able to do for each of us as well.��

In this Sunday’s gospel, Jesus specifically identifies his own body in connection with the temple. The disciples ask him by what authority he cleanses out the temple. He tells them that if the temple is destroyed, he will raise it again in three days. And then our narrator, John, tells us that Jesus isn’t really talking about the temple at all. Jesus is predicting his own death and resurrection, something that will happen three years from this point in his ministry. He knew from the beginning what it was that he faced. Jesus is talking about the power of Easter. ��

Jesus cleansed the temple. He took God’s house and made it right. He did it physically twice in his ministry, then he did it again on the cross. On the cross he cleansed this world of its sin. Unfortunately, this world doesn’t always want to be clean. We all have sins that separate us from the relationship that God wants with us. We all have things in our lives that keep us from the path that God has for us. The thing is that we are used to them. We don’t even realize they are there anymore. We don’t even see them as sin. They are just a part of our world. Like the Temple, we have tables of sin that have wandered into our lives and we don’t even realize that they shouldn’t be there. And once the sin takes hold it grows. ��

But the good news is that we don’t need to do it on our own. For Jesus, fierce Jesus, with his whip made from cords, is there to cast out those things that need to be cast out. Let Jesus in your temple. Allow him to work in your life and free you from the things of this world that keep you from God. Let him cleanse you. Let him redirect you towards God. ��God Bless You,��

Fr. Valentine

Does the fiery anger of Jesus surprise you? Why or why not? Are there times when it is right to express justified anger? How do you think believers should show love and respect for God's house? ��

Although many people crowded around Jesus because of the signs he performed, he did not trust himself to them. What do you think those words mean? What did Jesus understand about the human heart? How will you practice having a faithful heart as Lent continues?�

Can you HELP Fr. Chux �and his Team in Nigeria?�

�PROJECT: Clean Water�

Taken for granted by many �A Luxury for others�

�

The water supply in the village of Ishiagu, Nigeria is scarce and the water available is contaminated and a breeding place for mosquitoes that cause malaria. The task of fetching

water itself is a health hazard.� Carrying heavy pots of water on their heads as they trek through winding, hilly and slippery paths, the young and old, walk more than a few miles through unfriendly terrain to reach the open streams and rivers.� Clean, accessible water is not only essential to good health but also a matter of life and death.� �

�

“What made an impression on me during this trip was a conversation I had with one of our security guards. He said that the people have given

up all hope in obtaining aid and can only hope that God will help them. He mentioned how moved he was to see the help we were providing, free of charge. A native Nigerian, the security guard said he had never witnessed this level of generosity before. Inspired by our work he said he was happy to work extra hours for free because he wanted to help us. The people are very poor and the lack of food, clean water and health care are

very real. They are a very religious people and rely heavily on their faith. So the joy I've witnessed in these people, as our medical mission provides them with basic medicines and medical care, is genuine. They believe God is listening to their prayers and that He has sent us to help them.” M. Bleggi (Volunteer & Photographer, Aug. ‘17)�

�

About UHI: Uplift Help International (UHI) is a non�profit organization that ministers to impoverished people in Africa, in particular the village of Ishiagu, Nigeria. UHI funds the annual mission of Fr. Chux and his team. Over the past 12 years, the Board of Directors has worked successfully with each other and with those who have offered their services as volunteers. A mustard seed was planted and has grown and is now a lovely tree in development. Faithfulness to the mission and the people, planning for sustainability and building relationships has given hope to the people. Confidence, trust and the faith of the people give evidence of their hope. �

Here are some suggestions to parents to help their children learn to pray the Mass, and create a reverent, prayerful atmosphere at Mass for all ages.��

�� If you have time, visit the church and walk your child around the worship space and acquaint them with the art, statues and architecture of our beautiful Catholic tradition. Show them the baptismal font and talk about their baptism. Point out the beauty of our stained glass. Stop by the Parish Office � if the pastor is available, he will gladly accompany you on your visit.�

��For Mass, arrive early to use the restroom, get a drink, and settle in. �

��Children are curious. Sit toward the front. Children will be able to see what the priest is doing and with your help will pay more attention.�

��Help your children pray and embrace the Mass. The Mass offers a teaching moment with your children to develop a sense of reverence and respect for the Mass and the sacred. �

��Model full participation for your child by actively participating in the Mass responses and singing the hymns. �
