This weekend we begin the 2025 Catholic Appeal. Commitment Weekend, during which thousands of Catholics from across the region are asked to provide philanthropic support, takes place the following weekend, March 22-23. Each gift to the Appeal provides essential funding to the many ministries, schools, and parishes that grow vibrant communities of faith and fulfill Christ’s mission to help the most isolated and vulnerable. When you leave today, please have a copy of the notice and an Appeal envelope, which should be returned as soon as possible.
A show of faith
Peter often gets it wrong, as he does in the Transfiguration. Faced with a glimpse of Jesus’ glory, his first instinct is to memorialize it with a shrine. We can understand that desire. Today we take countless photos and videos, hoping to capture something-a person, place, or moment-that can never be truly held, except in our hearts. In Lent, we remember our faith is more than a memory of God’s glory to be preserved. It is an eternal act of love. As we know from Sunday Mass, the best way to memorialize Jesus is to “go in peace to love and serve the Lord.”

Modlitwa Jubileuszu
Ojcze, ktory jesteś w niebie, niech wiara, którą nam dałeś w Twoim Synu Jezusie Chrystusie, naszym Bracie, i płomień miłości rozlany w naszych sercach przez Ducha Świętego, obudza w nas błogoslawionę nadzieję na przyjęcie Twojego Królestwa.
Niech Twoja łaska przemienia nas w pracowitych siewców ewangelicznych ziaren, ktore będą zaczynem ludzkości i kosmosu, w ufnym oczekiwaniu nowego nieba i nowej ziemi, gdy moce Zła zostaną pokonane, a Twoja chwała objawi się na wieki.
Niech łaska Jubileuszu ożywi w nas, Pielgrzymach nadziei, pragnienie dóbr niebieskich i rozleje po całej ziemi radość i pokój naszego Odkupiciela. Tobie Boże, błogosławiony po wsze czasy, niech będzie cześć i chwała na wieki.
Amen.
NIECH BÓG WAS BŁOGOSŁAWI I CHRONI W NADCHODZĄCYM TYGODNIU.
GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU. STAY SAFE.
