Today’s Liturgy:

Listening is stressed today. When Abraham’s faith is tested to sacrifice Isaac, he must continue to listen. When Jesus’ self- portrait of a sacrificed Messiah has been rejected by Peter, God demands from the cloud “Listen to him!” Are we listening … especially when God’s word doesn’t seem to suit?

THE SEASON OF LENT

LENT prepares for Easter, for the Lenten Liturgy disposes both the faithful and Catechumens to celebrate THE PASCHAL MYSTERY as the centre of the Liturgical year and of the Christian life. 

Lent was originally the time of preparation for those who were to become members of the Church at Easter (the Catechumens).

Purple is the colour of the season. Flowers are not used and musical instruments are only used to support the singing. The Gloria is omitted except on Solemnities and Feasts other than Sunday. The word “Alleluia” is not heard in church until the Easter Vigil.
