Dear Parishioners, By now we are getting used to the Lenten routine once again. As a remind-er, this week we have a special day of recollection for "seniors" on Wednes-day, beginning at 9:30am. (Interested "seniors" are asked to call the parish office by Monday -- tomorrow -- so that we can properly prepare.) Our Len-ten retreat for men of the parish will be held this Saturday. Father Christo-pher Seith -- a classmate of Father Jim -- will be the retreat master. Father has an S.T.L. in moral theology from the Angelicum. His thesis was on the moral dangers of digital technology. Interested men are asked to sign up by going to http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0C4CAEAB2BABF58-mens2. My thanks to the Knights of Columbus for organizing this event. In case you missed the "news" last week, Bishop Burbidge has granted all of us a dispensation from abstinence this Friday, Saint Patrick's Day. While we may eat meat on Friday this week, we are being asked to do some other work of penance -- perhaps abstaining -- one other day this week. For those who focus more on the celebration of Solemnity of Saint Joseph, please note that the solemnity has been transferred to Monday, March 20, this year. When a solemnity falls on a Sunday during Lent, or another priv-ileged season, the Church transfers that celebration to another day. During Lent, Confessions are being heard every Wednesday from 6:30 until 8:00pm, as well as Thursdays during Holy Hour and Saturday afternoons from 4:00 until 4:45. Stations are prayed each Friday at 7:00pm and with the school community at 2:30pm.

In Christ,

Red - No Adorer for this hour Blue - No Adorer for the first half hour Black - One Adorer already for this time slot but need one more Adorer.

If you can sign up for one of these available slots, it would be greatly appreciated.

Adult Education and Spiritual Enrichment

Treasures From Our Tradition

The Blessed Sacrament was not re-served in church buildings in the first centuries of the church. In those ear-ly years, of course, people met in bor-rowed "house churches," gathering on the Lord's Day for community, apos-tolic teaching, the breaking of the bread, and the prayers, as Acts of the Apostles tells us. Dispersed, people went their way into the workaday world until the next assembly. Weigh-ing down their hearts was the ab-sence of brothers and sisters, not on-ly the sick, but those imprisoned for the faith. No wonder they developed a way of extending the food of the Holy Table to them.

Forty years ago, every altar boy in training heard about Saint Tarcisius. He was a twelve-year-old boy at the time of intense persecution in fourth-century Rome. His community had begun to convey the consecrated bread from their Eucharist to those condemned to death or awaiting trial. Normally deacons did this, but on one occasion, it was necessary to send the boy to bear the holy mysteries to the prison. The legend says that he was an athlete, and was detained on the way by some playmates who wanted him to join in their game. When he refused, they demanded to know what he was carrying. The situation went from bad to worse, and he was badly

beaten and died of his injuries. A hundred years later, a pope called him a second St. Stephen. In the nineteenth century, Cardinal Nicholas Wiseman of England wrote a novel in which he expanded the story and popularized it. By then, no one seemed to notice that this twelve-year-old was actually touching and minis-tering the Eucharist, unthinkable until recently. Scholars say the story rings true: the first reason for setting some Eucharistic bread aside was not adoration, but Communion of the sick. --Rev. James Field, Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.
