Jer 7: 23-28

LK 11: 14-23

Know yourself … not the multitude of things that are of no account or are even harmful (UPS II  80).

Father Tom: This statement goes back to 1960…Fifty years later it is still very relevant.  All over the world people who should know better are anxiously concerned about how the movie ended or the game was lost.  And very little concerned about the potential loss of their souls!

LENTEN WEEKDAY

Dt. 4: 1-5, 9

Mt 5: 17-19

We are educated when we know how to use our freedom properly (FP 13).

Father Tom: “Educated” does not refer to book-learning only but comes from “ex” (“from”) and “ducere” (“to lead”).  So the basic meaning is to bring out from someone whatever good qualities are there.  When we make god use of our time, someone has “brought out from us” this ability.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. Adeodata Gallo FSP (1974)—Maria Tommaso HFI (1996)—Sr. Pilar Roggero FSP (2005)—Sr. Domenica Credico FSP (2005)—Sr. Magdala Castellino FSP (2005)—Fr. Giovanni Bandini SSP (2009)—Leo Converse (1961)
