Hope to see you at Our Lady of Lourdes Lenten mission with Fr. Augustine Wetta, OSB.
For more on Fr. Wetta, see the link below-Benedictine priest, teacher at Priory, rugby coach, surfer - he's an interesting guy.
By starting at 8 PM, we are attempting to make it easier for our parents of young children to attend, after you've been able to do most or all of the bedtime routine. Even if only one parent feels like you can make it each day - please join us!
We will have priests available for confessions on the last night. They will begin at 7:30 PM, will continue into the talk if there remains a line, and will also be available afterwards.

Be A Heart Design put together this resources for choosing practices of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. Approaching Lent intentionally can bear such great fruit, and this should help guide you!
Parishioner Paul Christopher compiled the list below, should you still be in need of ideas!

The ACTS Community of Our Lady of Lourdes, Christ the King, and St Roch would like to invite you to Join
fellow parishioners in exploring Bishop Robert Barron’s 6-part video series “Untold Blessing”. Now is a great time to gather with others, in person or virtually, to better understand how we can follow Jesus’s call to holiness in our everyday lives. Bishop Barron shares that our ultimate goal is to be a saint. It is our greatest calling and what is desired for us by our Creator. Holiness is not just for the ordained or a
select few. Jesus Christ issues a “universal call to holiness” based on his teaching in the Gospel of
Matthew to “be perfect, even as your heavenly Father is perfect.”
The 6-week series will be held on Wednesday nights at 7:15pm beginning on Ash Wednesday (February
22). There are two options for attendance: either in-person at the Our Lady of Lourdes Commons or
virtually via a live Zoom group. Please register at:
Untold Blessing Registration
We will be using the Glendalough Mass by Liam Lawton for our musical Mass parts during Lent. If you'd like to familiarize yourself with the music ahead of time, here are recordings of the setting:
Stations will be held on Fridays during Lent at 2:05 PM with the school students.
A reminder that there will be no morning Mass at 7:00 AM on Holy Thursday, Good Friday, or Holy Saturday, but instead Morning Prayer (from the same Liturgy of the Hours we used in our Advent daily prayer).
The liturgies on Holy Thursday evening, Good Friday afternoon, and the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday are some of the most beautiful of the year.
If you have never been to the Triduum services and can plan around it now, we encourage you to experience at least one of them!
