As Catholics, we follow these sacrificial practices during Lent:

Abstinence from meat is to be observed by all those who are 14

years of age and older, on Ash Wednesday, all the Fridays in

Lent and on Good Friday.

Fasting is to be observed on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday

by all who are 18 years of age but not yet 59. Those who are

bound to fast may take only one full meal. Two smaller meals

are permitted to maintain strength according to individual needs,

but eating sold food between meals is not permitted.

Have you thought of a vocation to the

priesthood? Come and learn more. The

Diocese of Worcester’s annual discern-

ment retreat, directed by Bishop

McManus, will be held on April 12 & 13.

This retreat begins at 6pm Friday and ends at 6pm Saturday.

It is for men high school age, college age and older. The retreat

center is only 30 minutes from Worcester at the Immaculate

Conception Retreat Center in Putnam, Connecticut. There is no

cost and transportation is provided if needed. Visit worcestervo-

cations.com for more information. Contact Fr. Jim Mazzone at

[email protected] or by phone 508-340-5788 to sign up.

8th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Emails. Carpools. Shopping lists. Home repairs. It can

seem like we move so quickly from one thing to the next. Our

news comes in sound bites and headlines. How often do we take

time for silence, for prayer, for reflection, for wisdom? Jesus

warns us of stumbling through life without an adequate sense of

where we're going. "Can a blind person guide a blind person?

Will not both fall into a pit?" This Sunday's Gospel isn't about

fumbling along but offers a self-check on our own motivations.

"Why do you notice the splinter in your brother's eye,

but do not perceive the wooden beam in your own?" Without

adequate self-reflection, it's easy to become blind to our own

faults. We go through life's motions as our bad habits linger or

even increase. We may become increasingly impatient, we may

avoid important tasks, we may neglect the emotional needs of

our spouse. Perhaps, in the process, we find fault with those

around us. In the words of Jesus, "remove the wooden beam

from your own eye first."

LIGHT OF THE WORLD RETREAT

Join us for a soul searching, loving and energizing

retreat. For the 2nd time, we are bringing to

Good Shepherd Parish the incredible Light of the

World retreat. Have you always thought about

going on a Catholic retreat to restore your faith?

Have you wondered how you could become hap-

pier and more fulfilled every day? We have an

easy solution. Since the retreat will be held here

at Good Shepherd, there are no overnights or long

travel distances. You go home each night, rest and we feed you when

you return--physically and spiritually! The retreat will be held on Friday

evening March 29th, Saturday and Sunday March 30 and 31 and

will conclude on Monday evening April 1st. This is FREE to all pa-

rishioners, their family and their friends of any denomination who are 18

years and older. Get closer to Jesus Christ and let His Light enter your

world each and every day. We have the tools! More information to fol-

low in upcoming bulletins.

Catholic Relief Services Rice Bowls

Rice Bowls are available at all church entrances this weekend. Please

take one home and throughout Lent, drop in your spare change or curren-

cy. All contributions are forwarded to Catholic Relief Services, which

provides life-saving assistance in nearly 100 countries. CRS works on

our behalf to care for the poorest of the poor in our world and to end

global poverty. CRS also funds agricultural and water projects and

mother and child health projects. The CRS Rice Bowl Project asks us to:

Pray to deepen our relationship with God and to reflect on what type of

person He calls us to be.

Fast to remove the things that get between us and God and to live in

solidarity with those in need.

Give Alms to our brothers and sisters in need, honoring Jesus’ call to

serve our neighbors.

Our Lady of the Valley School has openings in Kindergar-

ten, 1st and 2nd grade. OLV offers Spanish, Art, Music, Phys. Ed. And

Technology classes. OLV has a Before and After School Care Program!

Please call 508-278-5851 for more information.

lic private and independent college preparatory school for young girls in
