TRANSCRIPT
Exodus 17:3-7
Romans 5:1-2, 5-8
John 4:5-42
In the desert, water is wealth. But in the desert, stagnant
water can be deadly. Minerals can accumulate which
make water undrinkable and useless – even toxic. The
best and most useful, the richest water is “living” or
!owing water. Fresh and refreshing, living water makes
living a lot easier. God is the living water who gives
meaning and freshness to our lives. Springing up like
water from a rock in the desert a multitude of graces &ll
our lives. From us the graces must !ow forth to water
and nourish the earth. Jesus is our rock in the desert.
From him the members of the church should !ow forth
using time, talent and treasure to bless the earth. Like the
woman at the well we do not always realize the
implications of the teachings of Jesus for our lives. Grace
does precious little good damned up like a stream. To
nourish self, church and world, we must be living water
for one another. And don’t worry, the rock which is Jesus
will never run dry. The more you give away the more you
will have.

sms school news FROM OUR SCHOOL OFFICE We are in the midst of administering the
Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS) to students in
grades 2-7. St. Mary students historically
score in the top 10% in the nation on standardized tests...one
of the criteria to receive the National Blue Ribbon School of
Excellence (which has been awarded to St. Mary School three
times!) Students are asked to eat a healthy breakfast and get
plenty of sleep in order to do their best.
For more information on the school, please visit us at

External Sacri&ce: So why
exactly are you not eating
candy for the next month? This is a very popular penance during Lent,
and the questions about it are just as
popular. Heaven forbid you should avoid
the cake at the birthday party! You LOVE cake! But it’s Lent – a
time for penance and sacri&ce. Christ has said, “If anyone
wishes to come after me, he must deny himself and take up
his cross daily and follow me” (Luke 9:23). Giving up
something we enjoy strengthens our love for Christ and our
resilience against temptation. As Pope Benedict XVI said in his
Lenten address of 2009, “Through fasting and praying, we
allow [Christ] to come and satisfy the deepest hunger that we
experience in the depths of our being: the hunger and thirst
for God.” It unites us with Christ’s own sacri&ces and gives us
a deeper appreciation of the blessings in our lives.
Constitution of the Sacred Liturgy “In the earthly liturgy we take part in a foretaste of that heavenly liturgy
celebrated in the holy city of Jerusalem” (Constitution
on the Sacred Liturgy, 8)
We think of Jerusalem as both the earthly city
where Christ’s Passion, Death, and
Resurrection took place and the heavenly city
to which we aspire. In this sense Jerusa-lem is
the heavenly kingdom. In this heavenly
Jerusalem, we will be united to God and one another in a
deep bond of love, peace, and joy. Liturgy is a foretaste, a
glimpse, of what the &nal destination will be like for us: a
deep communion with God. In the present, we build commun
-ion through the words, prayers, music, actions, and ges-tures
of the liturgy. God is present and empowering us to become
what God desires: his holy people. While God’s immense
goodness and love cannot be known fully in the present, the
liturgy gives a glimpse of this deep love of communion. The

From the desk of Fr. Ken Once again we see the mercy of the Lord. We meet the woman
at the well who had (ve husbands and is living with another
man. Jesus forgives her but tells her to mend her ways. Jesus is
ready and willing to meet us at the well and forgive us ; all we
have to do is go to Him and promise to mend our ways.

Worship 101—“What are the Scrutinies?” The primary way that the Church assists the catechumens
(called the elect after the celebration of the Rite of Election
on the First Sunday of Lent) in this conversion process
during Lent is through the celebration of the rites called
Scrutinies. These ritual celebrations on the Third, Fourth and
Fifth Sundays of Lent are communal prayers celebrated
around the elect to strengthen them to overcome the power
of sin in their lives and to grow in virtue. To scrutinize
something means to examine it closely. The community
does not scrutinize the catechumens; the catechumens
scrutinize their own lives and allow God to scrutinize them
and to heal them.
There is danger in celebrating the Scrutinies if the
community thinks of the elect as the only sinners in our
midst who need conversion. All of us are called to
continuing conversion throughout our live, so we join with
the elect in scrutinizing our own lives and praying to God for
the grace to overcome the power of sin that still infects our
hearts. Every Catholic should spend some time re!ecting on
what obstacles to gospel living exist in his or her own life.
Then when the Scrutinies are celebrated, we will all know
that the prayers are for us as well as for the elect.
Taking seriously this dynamic of scrutiny and conversion
gives us a richer perspective on Lenten “giving up.” What we
are to give up more than anything else is sin, which is to say
we are to give up whatever keeps us from living out our
baptismal promises fully. Along with the elect we all need to
approach the season of Lent asking ourselves what needs to
change in our lives if we are to live the gospel values that
Jesus taught us. Our journey through these forty days
should be a movement ever closer to Christ and to the way
of life he has exempli&ed for us.

The Samaritan woman has knownpain, disappointment, the restlesssearch for a life of happiness andmeaning. She has known the deaden-ing routine of daily chores, coming tothe well for water that will be gone bythe next day. She thinks there must bemore to life, if only someone wouldtell her a new story. But she has heardso many stories and always they endthe same way—disillusionment, frus-tration, disappointment. We, too, thirst for something real,
something genuine, something thatwill refresh us. But in our desperationwe often settle for far less than we feelwe deserve, because the life we know
demands less of us than the life ofwhich we dream. She wants to believe this man she
meets at the well, but she fears yetanother lie. This time she wants to besure. Her opening challenge is filledwith suspicion and mistrust. Thestronger the defenses we build aroundourselves, the more we feel vulnerableat the thought of believing someoneoutside those barriers. And the brutalreality is that at times belief will be dis-appointed, trust will be betrayed. ButJesus challenges the woman to believeonce more, to risk one more time, togive new life one more chance. Hechallenges her to tell her story, to listento the story he has to tell, to believethat this time it can be different. The Lord is never surprised by our
restlessness, our disappointment, ourfearful, hurting challenges. Just as Godcalmed Moses’ ruffled authority andgave the people water from the rock,Jesus responds to the woman at thewell with challenges of his own thatpromise life and refreshment. Deeperand deeper they reach into the well ofself, of faith, of trust, where the livingand life-giving water is to be found.Together Jesus and the woman explorethe stories of needs and wounds andbeliefs.We might be surprised by this
woman’s questions about the rightplace to worship God. This was a bigissue for the people of Jesus’ day. Many
of our friends and family membershave questions about religion. Wemight have questions ourselves. Jesuslistens and responds with an opennessto truth that we would do well toremember in the midst of heated dis-cussions. The Gospels remind us againand again that often God’s truth is big-ger than the little rules that we find soreassuring, those things that tell usthat ours is the only way.Today’s Gospel reminds us that at the
center of our faith is what has oftenbeen called “The Greatest Story EverTold.” We are the stories of our past—stories we tell, stories other people tellabout us—but we can become the sto-ries God tells for our future. This is themessage of the story of the Samaritanwoman at the well.Lent calls us to step aside from our
ordinary routines, to spend time listen-ing to God, to believe that we can tellour stories in a new way. The word ofGod challenges us to explore the storyof our faith once more and discover forourselves that Jesus really is “the saviorof the world”—and what this means inour own lives. This is what we dowhen we read Scripture, when wegather with others to talk about theScriptures. We immerse ourselves inthe big story, in God’s story, and thenwe see where the stories of our ownlives reflect a piece of that story. Andin that intersection, we find the livingwater of faith.

Francis shared many of the attitudes
toward women common to people
of his time in history. Especially in the
Church, women were regarded as
more sinful than men, often sent by
the devil to distract men with their
charms and wiles.
But if this was the official stance, it
was also balanced by the strong and
holy women he knew in his daily life.
His mother shielded him from his
father’s sometimes unreasonable
expectations and abuse. Clare lis-
tened to his preaching, followed his
example, and counseled him when he
doubted the next steps on his path.
He arranged for Clare and her sis-
ters to have as much independence
as possible, and to live a life of pover-
ty at a time when such a thing would
have been unthinkable for a group of
religious women.
Francis would have seen in the
story of the Samaritan Woman at the
Well an example of how Jesus stood
against the social mores of his day
when a greater truth was at stake.
The men and women who follow
Francis in living the Gospel likewise
know how to see beyond the expec-
tations of social convention and live
the word of God well.
My soul is thirsting for you,
O Lord, my God.
for you my flesh pines,
for you my soul thirsts,
like a dry, weary land
without water.
You are my help,
and in the shadow
of your wings
I shout for joy.
My soul clings fast to you;
your right hand holds
me firm.
—Psalm 63:2, 3-4, 8-9
Arguing is a fact of family life. Have youever known a married couple that neverbickered? Is there anyone in your ownfamily with whom you’ve never had a dis-agreement? Often it is only within thesafety and security of a loving relationshipthat we can feel free to express our doubts,our frustrations, and our desires. Yet it cansometime feel inappropriate to have thissame relationship with God. Can we everargue with the Almighty?Several Scripture stories, including
today’s Gospel, tell of those whose liveswere transformed after daring to engageJesus in an argument. The woman at thewell doesn’t take Jesus’s promises at facevalue—she questions him, testing andprobing until she is certain he is telling thetruth. Rather than dismissing her doubt orchastizing her, Jesus shows respect for herconcerns and goes toe-to-toe with her.God is bigger than our fears, more pow-
erful than our doubts, and loves us morethan our closest family. We can alwaystrust him with our questions.
