GREIF SUPPORT - The Pastoral Area Parishes of Corpus
Christi, St. John Neumann, and St. John the Baptist are
coming together to pray for deceased family members,
friends and parishioners. We will also share information
about the Grief Support Group being formed. There will
be two services, the first on Thursday, March 12, at 7:00
pm and again on Saturday March 14, at 10:00 am. Both
services will be at Corpus Christi, in the Chapel in the
Parish Center Building. If you are grieving the loss of
someone dear to you, plan to attend one of the two
services.

AREA INFORMATION
SECOND SUNDAY OF LENT
8
F asting is not an isolated discipline, but one of a trinity of holy practices: Prayer. Fasting. Almsgiving. Each of these gives support and meaning to
the others. Prayer befriends the soul. It re-fixes our sacred purpose and turns us toward the tasks at hand. Fasting befriends the body — which is to say that the body is good, very good, and worthy of whatever form our fasting must take. Almsgiving befriends our neighbor with whom we share what we might otherwise have hoarded.
To fast, accompanied by prayer and almsgiving, is to be healed. Fasting is good for the body, the “body politic,” and the “mystical body.” Fasting helps to make the body whole.
Fasting is necessary now if we are ever to enjoy feasting. A good appetite allows us to enjoy the earthly gifts that we have been given. So fasting is not so much a deprecation
of the flesh, but a sharpening of earthly joys. The Talmud says: “One will have to give an account on the judgment day of every good thing which one might have enjoyed — and did not.” Fasting helps us savor God’s goodness.
