SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Ash Wednesday is a day of fast and abstinence. All persons 14 and older are bound by the law of abstinence (no meat). Adults from age 18 through 59 are required to fast which means only one full meal daily and two other small meals not equal to the full meal. Guidelines for Lenten Abstinence: Catholics are to practice the discipline of abstinence on the Fridays of Lent. The law of abstinence forbids the eating of meat, but not of eggs, the products of milk or condiments made of animal fat. Permissible are soups, gravy and sauces flavored with meat. Abstinence is to be observed by all Catholics from the completion of their 14th year – from the day after their 14th birthday – and throughout life. These days of abstinence are binding only to those in good health. St. Vincent de Paul Society: There will be a meeting on Tuesday, March 10th at 6:00pm in the Sacred Heart Room.

Thank you for your generosity! MESSAGE FROM FATHER JONATHAN Dear Parishioners, This is the commitment weekend for our diocese’s Annual Catholic Appeal. You should have received a letter from the diocese (carrying my name) asking for your support. This appeal, along with parish assessments, supports the larger work of the Church in our diocese. One of the main expenses this money is used for is the education and support of seminarians, especially those in the final years of theological study before ordination to the priesthood. Our own Austin Ammanniti will be ordained a transient deacon in Carey on March 28. I am happy to say that he will be with us for the Sunday Masses on Palm Sunday. He has been serving his pastoral year (much like an internship) at St. Michael’s in Findlay, and he will return to Rome to continue his studies in the fall. He will return home to be ordained a priest in late spring of 2016. Your support for the ACA has helped make his studies and ministry possible. Sometimes in such appeals, it does help to see a “face” where our gifts go. I know Austin appreciates the generosity of Catholics in our diocese and especially from his own parish. I certainly encourage your gift to the ACA. On behalf of Bishop Thomas and all who benefit from your gift, I thank you for your generosity. Father Jonathan 2014 CONTRIBUTION STATEMENTS: If you wish to receive a copy of your 2014 contribution statement, please call or email the parish office. Statements can be picked up, emailed or mailed to you. Email address is [email protected] or call 419-483-3417. Are you looking to deepen your prayer life this Lenten season? If so, please consider spending six minutes a day with “The Little Black Book.” “The Little Black Book” contains daily Scripture passages and reflections for each day of the Lenten season, beginning with February 15th, the Sunday before Ash Wednesday, and ending on April 5th, Easter Sunday. “The Little Black Book” will be available after each weekend Mass in the vestibule of the church for a $1.00 donation. They are also available in the parish office. ICS CYO Winter Sports Awards will be held Thursday, March 5th at 7:00pm in the ICS Gymnasium. Family and friends are welcome to attend to support our athletes and coaches on a season well played!! Sponsor of the week:
