Lenten Daily Mass Schedule
Monday to Friday: 7:30 AM, Saturday 8:00 AM
Lenten Fast and Abstinence Regulations
Abstinence from meat on Ash Wednesday (March 5)
and all Fridays of Lent for those 14 years of age and
older is required by Church law. Ash Wednesday
(February 18) and Good Friday (April 3) are also
fast days for those between the ages of 18 and 59
which means you should eat less, take no solid food
between meals, only one full meal that day and no
meat. Serious reasons such as one’s health can excuse
a person from these rules.
Rice Bowls
Rice bowls are in your homes during this Lenten
season. Remember this is a gift we give to the poor
and a true gift is always a sacrifice. We sacrifice
something in our life and give the cost of it to the
poor. This is a project from the oldest to the youngest
in one’s family. The collection for your Lenten
Sacrifices will be taken up in a second collection at
Palm Sunday Masses on March 28/29, 2015. Your
donations go to Catholic Relief Services for the poor
and starving of the world.
Poor Boxes
In addition to the Rice Bowls, we ask that you donate
$1.00 or more a week to the poor box for local needs
and an extra $1.00 or more a week to the poor box for
our adopted mission in Haiti, the poorest country in
the Western Hemisphere.

Rooted Youth
Lenten Take home project……..
Daily Audio Bible
(Every Lent I usually have a Lenten speaker
following the Stations of the Cross on Tuesdays. I
hesitated this year to arrange anything because of
the continuing bad weather so I am proposing an
alternate Lenten activity - listening to the Daily
Audio Bible at home, in the car, on the go. I started
it myself on January 1st this year)
Did you know only 7% of Catholics read the Bible
daily? This audio podcast is a great way to dive into
the Bible! Every year, it starts January 1 and goes
through December 31, taking you through the Bible
in a year, about 30 minutes a day. Thousands of
people around the world listen to this podcast and
send in prayer requests. Each day, there is a reading
from the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms,
and Proverbs. They use different Bible Translations
each week. This is a great way to meditate on God’s
Holy Scripture and a great source for God’s word in
your daily life. It is February 15th, so you will have
to catch up and listen to all of January and most of
February but, you can listen to multiple each day
until you catch up. This podcast can be obtained
from any podcast smartphone app, or you can
download their app, “Daily Audio Bible” from any
app store on your smartphone for only 99 cents. If
you don’t have a smartphone, you can listen online
for free at http://www.dabplayer.com. There are
many people in our parish who have been listening
to this for years, and some that have just started this
year, and many have said that hearing the Bible
daily has completely changed their life. It also has
different audio Bible presentations for teens and for
your younger children. For more information about
this wonderful ministry, check out their website at
http://www.dailyaudiobible.com.
It is time to think about Steubenville East 2015
once again. Registration has already begun so we
need to make a decision quickly in order to register
as soon as possible. This year Steubenville East will
be held July 17-19 at U Mass Lowell.
For specific information go to www.lifeteen.com
<http://lifeteen.com/> (Very excited Fr. Jose is the
guest priest! ) A $50 non-refundable deposit is due
by Sunday February 22th. (I will only register those
who give me a deposit, since we lost money last
year on youth who changed their minds after I sent
in the deposit).
This Sunday February 15th the youth group will
hopefully be going iceskating (weather
permitting) from 5pm-9pm. leaving from St Joan's
parking lot. I will be available from 4:30-until 5 PM
collecting a deposit for anyone interested in
attending Steubenville east 2015. Please spread the
word and forward this e-mail to anyone currently in
high school or entering in 2015 that you think may
be interested in going to Steubenville this year. It is
a wonderful faith-filled fun weekend for all! I’m
looking forward to experiencing it with all of you
again this year. If you have any questions please
contact me, Kim Medeiros, at 658-0502.
