THIRSTING FOR LIFE-GIVING WATERS
Especially during the Lenten, Holy Week, and Easter seasons, the prayer
texts of the Eastern Church revel in paradoxical images of Christ: the eternal
life who is put to death, the host of the supper who is also its meal, the thirsty
crucified one with living water streaming from his side. These images flow
from the evangelists’ portrayals of Jesus and from his very ministry, during
which he often upset or reversed people’s expectations about him or the ways
of God. This “reversal” is at play in today’s Gospel, as Jesus speaks to an enemy foreigner who is also a woman beneath his status. In addition he, the thirsting one, shows the woman to be the one truly thirsting. He—whose parched
lips will say “I thirst” before he dies—is the source of life and life-giving water. Lent calls upon us to dwell on how each of us is thirsting for Christ, and it
leads us, ultimately, back to the life-giving waters of our baptism into his
Body.

THIRD SUNDAY OF LENT
March 19, 2017
Our Lent Project
Our Lent Project this year is to support Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Nursing Home in
Higuey, Dominican Republic. The nursing home is run by the Congregation of the
Cardinal Sancha Charity. The nuns take care of 37 elderly residents who have
been abandoned and are without family. The home provides shelter, clothing,
food, medications and medical care. All this is possible through the generosity of
concerned people. $75.00 covers the cost of 2 months of care for a resident. We
ask that you prayerfully consider a donation. Mission Committee members will be
at the front of the church after Mass to answer your questions.

Regulations on Fasting and Abstinence
The dual disciplines of fasting and abstinence have a long history in the Catholic
Church. Going back to the early Church, the purpose behind the custom of self denial
is not punishment; it is to simplify our lifestyles so that we create a certain emptiness.
In this way, freed from all distractions, we are able to hear and respond to God’s continued call to conversion and holiness.
♦ Fasting is to be observed on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday by all Catholics
between the ages of 18 to 59 years (inclusive). On days of fasting, one full meal is
allowed. Two smaller meals, sufficient to maintain strength, may be taken according
to one’s needs, but together they should not equal another full meal. Eating between
meals is not permitted, but liquids are allowed.
♦ Abstinence from meat is to be observed by all Catholics who are 14 years of age
and older. Ash Wednesday, all the Fridays of Lent, and Good Friday are days of abstinence.
Note: If a person is unable to observe the above regulations due to ill health or other
serious reasons, they are urged to practice other forms of self denial that are suitable
to their condition.
Fasting, almsgiving, and prayer are the three traditional disciplines of Lent. The faithful and catechumens should undertake these practices seriously in a spirit of penance
and of preparation for baptism or of renewal of baptism at Easter.

Tercer Domingo de Cuaresma
SEDIENTOS DE LAS AGUAS QUE DAN VIDA
Especialmente durante la Cuaresma, la Semana Santa
y el tiempo de Pascua, los textos de oración de la Iglesia
Occidental se deleitan con imágenes paradójicas de Cristo: la vida eterna que muere, el anfitrión de la cena que es
también alimento, el crucificado sediento del que mana
agua de vida de su costado. Estas imágenes fluyen de las
representaciones de Jesús por parte de los evangelistas y
de su mismísimo ministerio, durante el cual muchas veces
cambió o invirtió las expectativas que las personas tenían
sobre él o sobre los designios de Dios. Esta “inversión”
está en juego en el Evangelio de hoy, cuando Jesús habla
con una extranjera enemiga que está por debajo de su condición social. Además él, el que tiene sed, demuestra que
la mujer es la única que tiene sed verdadera. Él –cuyos
labios secos dirán “Tengo sed” antes de morir– es la fuente de vida y del agua que da vida. La Cuaresma nos llama
a reflexionar sobre cómo cada uno de nosotros tiene sed
de Cristo y nos lleva, en última instancia, de vuelta a las
aguas dadoras de vida de nuestro bautismo en su Cuerpo.
