Tabor, to witness His glorious Transfiguration. Together with the Apostles Peter, James, and John, the Lord Jesus initiates us into an ongoing dialogue with Moses and Elijah, who represent the law and the prophets---the ancient promises of God to Israel. This Sunday, March 1 at the 12:45PM Mass we shall have the communal reception of the Anointing of the Sick. This Sacrament exists to transfigure the sufferings of those facing serious illness or who struggle day by day with the infirmities of old age. This weekend we also pray for the men who are making the Christ Renews His Parish retreat, that their life-changing conversion of heart would be an inspiration for our own transformation. Please join us this Wednesday, March 4 in church at 6:30PM for an hour of inspiring music and personal witness by another of the sons of our Parish, Fr. Terry (a.k.a. “Tink”) Coonan. His brother Fr. Matt’s presentation was a great success last Wednesday. Not to imply that the Coonan family is competitive, but I suspect Fr. Terry would be very happy to inform his elder brother that the younger Coonan cleric packed the church with even more people! Finally, please continue to keep in your prayers the work of our Principal Search Committee. If you have not already done so, there is still time to offer your counsel to the Search Committee by going to the survey link on our Parish website (www.saintv.org); the deadline for submissions is Monday, March 2. I have great confidence that the Holy Spirit will work through every stage of the Search Committee’s discernment to identify the best candidate to be our new Principal for the coming school year. Ex 20:1-17 / 1 Cor 1:22-25 / Jn 2:13-25 *Chapel In St. Vincent’s love of Christ, Fr. Daniel Scheidt We will offer Anointing of the Sick at the 12:45 pm Mass this Sunday, March 1. If you will be having surgery, have a grave/ terminal illness or are elderly, please sign in before Mass in the Gathering Space. NEW MEMBER REGISTRATION HUNGERING FOR A BOUNTIFUL EARTH Parish representatives will be in the Church Conference Room next Sunday, March 8, after the 9:00 am Mass to welcome and register new members to St. Vincent’s. This week CRS Rice Bowl takes us to the coffee highlands of Nicaragua, where we’re called to protect both the goodness of creation and the livelihoods of struggling families. How will this week’s fast remind us of the sacredness of God’s creation and our duty to protect it? PENITENTIAL RITE (BAPTIZED/CANDIDATES) The scrutinies, which are solemnly celebrated on Sundays and are reinforced by an exorcism, are rites for self-searching and repentance and have above all a spiritual purpose. The scrutinies are meant to uncover, then heal all that is weak, defective, or sinful in the hearts of the elect; to bring out, then strengthen all that is upright, strong, and good. For the scrutinies are celebrated in order to deliver the elect from the power of sin and Satan, to protect them against temptation, and to give them strength in Christ, who is the way, the truth, and the life. C HURCH N EWS BAPTISMAL PREPARATION CLASSES Attendance at two Baptismal Preparation Sessions is required before your child is baptized — Session I and Session II. You may attend Session II before Session I, if necessary. Each session will begin at 7:00 pm. It is recommended that both parents attend before the birth of your child so that there will be no delay in setting a date for the baptism once the baby is born. Godparents, too, are welcome. At least one parent and one godparent must be practicing Catholics. Also, parents must be registered in the Parish. Please call the church office to sign up for your sessions. Session I (Parish Library) - March 12 Session II (Church Conference Room) - March 26 ROSARY MEETING March 9 (DATE CHANGE!!) at 6:30 pm in the Spiritual Center. All women of the parish are invited.

As part of our commitment to our seminarian students, the Vocations Committee would like to prepare "care packages" for each of them to get through some of those days when it seems like winter is dragging on! There will be a "gift tree" near the Information Center with ideas for each of the care packages. Please consider taking a tag, and purchasing the item on the tag. All donations need to be back to the church office no later than March 4. If you do not have time to purchase items, but still want to help, any monetary donations will be used to help purchase gas cards and other gift cards for the seminarians.
