The Chaplet of the Divine Mercy

You are invited to pray the

Chaplet of the Divine Mercy with

us at 10:15 a.m. every Sunday during Lent

leading up to and concluding on Divine Mercy

Sunday.

Longing for Glory Consider today’s Gospel reading from the perspective of the apostles. Peter, James, and John. What an amazing experience it must have been for them to witness the Transfiguration! Jesus singles these men out to join him as he ascends a mountain to pray. When they reach the summit, they see their master like never before. Jesus’ face changes and his clothes become dazzling white, as Peter, James, and John catch a glimpse of his glory. They also see Jesus conversing with two of the most famous men in Israel’s history: Moses and Elijah. These men represent the two key parts of the Old Testament: Moses, as the author of the Torah, represents the Law; and Elijah, a great prophet, represents the Prophets. Together, their presence at this moment of Jesus’ transfiguration symbolizes how the entire Old Testament—the Law and the prophets—finds fulfillment in Christ. Finally, Peter, James, and John hear a heavenly voice—the voice of God the Father—say to them: “This is my chosen Son; listen to him.” This mysterious event continues to have spiritual application to our lives today. Like the three apostles, we are called to ascend with Jesus every time we pray. In prayer with our Lord, we are called to seek his glorious face and listen to him.

Men of Holy Redeemer

The next meeting will be

Tuesday, March 19th

6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

All the men of the parish are invited to participate.
