My Dear Parishioners,

Over the past few months, we have

been hearing a lot about this "Jubilee

Year of Mercy," proclaimed by Pope

Francis, which he launched on Dec. 8,

2015, when he opened and walked through

the Holy Door at St. Peter's Basilica in

Rome. The walking through the Holy

Door is meant to symbolize the entering into a "new room"

in our life. A new room actually in our heart, where we dis-

cover in a new way the mercy of God, a mercy we are meant

to share with others.

Pope Francis has built his whole Pontificate on what he

believes is the central core of the Gospel: namely that just as

the mercy Jesus showered upon His apostles, (especially

after they abandoned Him) transformed their lives, so too

that same mercy can transform our lives as well. God's mer-

cy can make us what the apostles became: ambassadors of

mercy to those who offended them.

Let's be honest: it sounds good on paper, but it's very hard

to forgive an enemy, or someone who has hurt us or some-

one we love, especially if that person received nothing but

goodness and kindness from us. Very often, as I'm hearing

confessions, penitents will honestly and humbly say,

"Monsignor, I have such a difficult time forgiving." Pope

Francis believes that if we can soften our hearts and open our

hearts to people, we will have a much freer, happier life.

To help us unlock the meaning of this Holy Year of Mer-

cy, I have asked Fr. David Friel, the preacher for this year's

Lenten Mission, to design his mission talks around that

theme. The Lenten Mission, which begins tonight, has three

different parts: The Meaning of Mercy, the Need for Mer-

cy and the Beauty of Mercy. Knowing Fr. Friel as I do, I'm

sure he has prayerfully prepared and will deliver very power-

ful and effective mission talks, that will not only inform our

minds, but strike our hearts.

I strongly encourage families and friends to come as a

group, and discuss what you hear together. Confessions will

be heard on Sunday and Monday evening of the Mission,

immediately after the service. The service is brief, so as to

allow us more time to hear Fr. Friel's words.

Hope to see you at our Parish Lenten Mission, which be-

gins tonight. It might be the best thing we will do for Lent!

May God Bless You,

Psalm 103

1 Corinthians 10: 1-6, 10-12

Luke 13: 1-9 Our first reading sets the stage for the other two: God hears the

Chosen People’s cry in Egypt, and acts decisively to save them. But

Saint Paul says that not all of them were saved in the end. What

was needed was repentance, the repentance of which Jesus speaks

in the Gospel. Let us listen closely for God’s message of repent-

ance and redemption.

During the month of February, we

practice the virtue of Charity. Charity is

the last and greatest of the theological

virtues. Charity allows us to love God

above all else for His own sake, and to

love our neighbor for the love of God.

Our Lord gave a new command to love one another as I

have loved you. Through our school mission, we build Catholic lead-

ers through various ways of Christian service and chari-

ty. Our Student Council and National Junior Honors So-

ciety work hard each month to raise money and aware-

ness for a specific charity. Most importantly, each day

our students pray for all of the special intentions of our

school community which includes you, our parishion-

ers.

As we promote service, may our kindness and gener-

osity to others change lives, better neighborhoods, and

create stronger nations.

Cornerstone for LifeCornerstone for Life A Great Night With the “Geator”

All the ‘yon teens’ had a great time at Saturday’s Oldies But Goodies Night, hosted by “The Geater with the Heater,” Jerry Blavat. All of the top hits of the ‘60s and ‘70s brought folks to the dance floor (above). Later, Jerry took time to talk with Monsignor Marine and Joe Brusco (right).

50th Anniversary

Commemorative Book We are getting closer to the completion of our 50th Anni-

versary Commemorative Book. This book will be worthy of

display in your home, on the coffee table, or as a gift.

The book will contain over 100 pages of history, stories,

pictures and personal testimonials from former priests, reli-

gious, etc., that will help us to cherish and preserve the mem-

ories of 50 years for generations to come.

The anniversary committee would like to invite as many

parishioners as possible to be a part of this historical record.

A special section of the book will contain a listing of the

names of book patrons, living and deceased. A donation of

$30 for a single line listing in this section will also entitle the

donor to a free copy. Below you will find a sample form to

assist you in making a listing in this special section. We ask

that you complete the form and attach it to your donation, and

drop it off at the Rectory by the Feb. 29 deadline.

Acts of Mercy On March 13, 2015, Pope Francis beautifully said that, "Mercy

shows the beating heart of Christ." As we continue our efforts in the

pro-life movement, we can be a witness to God's mercy when we

encounter pregnant mothers, and also those working in the abortion

industry.

Please consider joining one of the local 40 Days for Life cam-

paigns taking place in West Chester, Philadelphia and Norristown.

This is a truly wonderful way to make an act of mercy. Sign up for an

hour at www.40daysforlife.com.

Praying at the Planned Parenthood at 600 Louis Drive in Warmin-

ster on Friday mornings is a great Lenten activity. There are always

people there, outside by the curb, praying on Fridays, when the abor-

tions occur. This is nearby, requires little effort or time, and saves

lives. Bring a friend!

ABSOLUTE FINAL CALL!

Adoration SocietyAdoration Society

"Why Eucharistic Adoration"? Why should you spend

time visiting with Jesus in the Eucharist, simply because Jesus

himself, your best friend, invites you. He said it so warmly,

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened. Come

to me and I will refresh you". Take a little time out for a private visit with your best

friend, Jesus. The whole purpose of our human existence is to

live forever with the Blessed Trinity in heaven, to enjoy forev-

er, the victory of Jesus over sin and death. We get a foretaste

of that eternal happiness and peace when we visit and adore

Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.

This is why thousands of people from all across our country

will testify that one hour each week with Jesus in the Blessed

Sacrament is the most peaceful, the most satisfying hour of

their whole week. (Fr. Robert Goedert, O.P.) Our parish is blessed to have a perpetual adoration chapel

that is open 24 hours every day. Please stop by and visit the

Lord in our chapel adjacent to the parish offices in the St.

Katharine Drexel Center. Your visit can be as long or brief as

your daily schedule permits. What a wonderful addition to

your Lenten devotions!

For more information or to sign up for a scheduled open

hour, please contact Sean & Debbie McDermott (215)-504-
