1st SUNDAY OF LENT –CYCLE B
February 22, 2015
Msgr. Mark
Dear Community,
Usually on the first Friday of Lent
we have our Theological Lecture. This
year the speaker we wanted was not
available until the Second Sunday of Lent.
So last Friday we had Stations of the Cross.
This Friday Fr. Denis Robinson, OSB, the
Rector of St. Meinrad School of Theology
will present a Theological Lecture in
church on the topic of “The Pilgrim Way.”
People have asked me why the
speaker is listed as the “Very Rev. Denis
Robinson, OSB.” Of course the OSB
stands for “Order of St. Benedict.”
The term “Very Rev.” is reserved for
theology rectors and rectors of cathedrals.
So I guess we ever wrote a letter to Fr. Pat
Beidelman, we would address it to “The
Very Rev. Patrick Beidelman. The term
“Most Rev.” is for bishops. And the title
“Right Rev.” is for deans like Fr. Wilmoth.
Try to make it to a Friday night Fish
Fry in the School Cafeteria. Meals are
served from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
Sincerely, Msgr. Mark
This is the 1st Sunday of Lent, and we prepare ourselves
for the mysteries of our salvation that we will celebrate in 40
days at Easter. The Stewardship message runs through
today’s readings. In the Noah’s Ark saga, God was
displeased with mankind’s stewardship of the earth.
Mankind was wicked and
God decided to destroy both
people and animals. Only Noah and his immediate family
were spared. God directed Noah to build the ark. Noah is
the human being who carries out God’s stewardship plan to
keep humanity, animals, plants, and other living things from
extinction.
God makes a covenant with Noah, because of his
righteousness. He tells him, “you alone have I found to be
truly just. Noah loaded his family and all the animals onto
the ark. It rained for 40 days and 40 nights. The flooding
killed every living thing upon the earth, and only Noah, his
family, and the animals on the ark were saved. When the
waters receded, God directed Noah to leave the ark, with his
family and the animals and to be fruitful, multiply, and fill
the earth. The first thing Noah did was to offer holocausts
(burnt offerings) to the Lord from the best of the animals and
birds.
What a wonderful model of stewardship for us. God saves
us from our sin through his death and resurrection. He
claims us for himself through the waters of baptism. He
works through us today, as he worked through Noah in OT
times to bring about his plan of salvation. How do we
respond? Hopefully, we will be like Noah, and return to
God the first-fruits of our labors.
As we begin Lent, we talk about giving back to God our
first-fruits through our stewardship of treasure. Stewardship
is an act of faith. We believe that God gives us everything,
even our very lives. God asks that we return to him a
portion of our time, talent, and treasure. The more generous
we are, the more the Lord can accomplish through us, and
through our parish family at OLG.
In Him,
Tony Cooper-Stewardship and Development
Due to the office closed on President’s Day and
deadline for the bulletin to be published the Gifts
will be published next week.

Hello Our Lady Of Greenwood Parishioner,
My name is Gabriel Proctor and I am a boy scout from
the resident troop 265. I have begun an eagle project to make a
grotto to St. Francis for the resident sisters and renovate a few areas
around the church. The sisters have wanted something like this ever
since they became the sisters of this parish and it is finally possible
with this project. What we will need to finish the
project will be a total of $1,500 by the end of
March. Any donation that you can give will be
greatly appreciated and any extra funds will be
devoted to the area that we renovate so that the area
will be taken care of for many years to come. With
any donation that you may make, the check or
envelope can be addressed to OLG – Grotto for the
Sisters. Thank you for reading this and have a
blessed day.
Sincerely, Gabriel Proctor
