Eucharistic Adoration occurs once per

Lenten Regulations – ABSTINENCE: Catholics
over 14 years of age are bound to the obligations of
abstinence. Abstinence is to be observed on Ash
Wednesday and the Fridays of Lent. On days of abstinence, meat may not be used at all.
FAST: Catholics over 18 and up to the beginning of their sixtieth year are bound to the obligation of fasting. Ash Wednesday and Good Friday
are the days of fasting. On these days, only one full
meal is allowed. Two other meatless meals, sufficient to maintain strength, may be taken according to
each one's needs, but together they should not equal
another full meal. Eating between meals is not permitted, but liquids, including milk and fruit juices
are allowed.

The Light Is On For You… You may r emember
from years past, that on Wednesday evenings during
Lent, parishes throughout the Archdiocese were
open each Wednesday evening for confession. This
Lent we will again be providing the opportunity
for the sacrament of reconciliation on Wednesdays, March 9 and 16 from 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm in
the lower church. All ar e ur ged to avail themselves of this wonderful opportunity to receive the
Lord’s grace and forgiveness in the sacrament.

Young Adult Stations of the Cross/Soup Supper On
Friday, March 18, come join St. Columbkille's young
adults for the Stations of the Cross. Afterwards, come
fill your stomach while fulfilling your obligation to abstain from meat by enjoying a Lent-friendly soup and
salad meal with fellow young adults at St.
Columbkille’s rectory. The Stations begin in the upper
Church at 7 PM. Because Lent is about prayer, fasting,
and almsgiving, the St. Col’s YAC hopes that this
event will be an opportunity for us to do all 3 activities
together by praying the Stations, enjoying thereafter a
meatless meal, and contributing to a local food pantry.
To facilitate the latter, please bring a canned food item
that will be added to the donation that the St. Col’s
YAC will be making to a local food pantry. No RSVP
is necessary for the Stations. However, if you wish to
attend the soup supper afterwards, then please RSVP
here: yacsoupsupper.eventbrite.com
The Catholic Daughters wish to
thank all who donated to the Pennies
for the Unborn collection. All of the
change has been counted and the total
is $500.00. This, along with donations
from Catholic Daughters all over the
State of Massachusetts, will be given to the Pro-Life
Office of the Archdiocese.
The next meeting of the Catholic Daughters will be
Thursday, March 10 at 7:00 pm in the school cafeteria.
There will be a “Brown Bag Auction” to help raise
funds for the charities supported by the Catholic
Daughters. All women of the parish are welcome.

4º Domingo de Cuaresma
Hay una gran escena en la versión cinematográfica de
Charles Dickens "A Christmas Carol". Después de su
tiempo con los espíritus de la Navidad, Scrooge va a la
casa de su sobrino Fred y se aproxima a la esposa de Fred
Emily, preguntándole, "¿Se puede perdonar a un cerdo
viejo tonto -headed sin ojos para ver y oídos para escuchar todos estos años? "es el momento en la historia cuando Scrooge se reúne con su familia y descubre el significado de la Navidad que había negado durante tantos años.
Hay una diferencia entre decir lo siento y pedir perdón. El
primero es un momento de conversión cuando reconocemos nuestros pecados y nos apartamos de ellos. Es el momento de arrepentimiento y reconocemos que estamos
equivocados. La segunda está pidiendo la reconciliación,
algo que no se puede tomar por nosotros mismos, pero
que alguien nos tiene que dar. Cuando pecamos, tenemos
que corregir nuestros errores y reparar el daño que hemos
causado. Siendo pena por nuestro pecado no garantiza la
reconciliación, y la gente puede necesitar tiempo para reconciliarse. Pero debemos pedir perdón y que los demás
sepan que estamos verdaderamente arrepentidos de nuestros delitos. Así que cuando mis palabras o acciones han
dañado a alguien que amo, tengo que hacer todo lo posible para reparar nuestra relación, y para restaurar nuestro
amor y confianza. "Por favor, perdóname" es un poderoso
paso en la dirección correcta.
