Ash Wednesday....

Hello friends!
Normally Life Teen is Wednesdays from 7:30pm to 8:30pm. This Wednesday is Ash Wednesday (3/9/11) and Sacred Heart will have Masses at 8am and 6pm. Corpus Christi will have a Mass at 7:30pm. Life Teen will be at the normal time, but I encourage you to attend an Ash Wednesday Mass if there is a choice between Life Teen and Mass.

On another note, I am considering switching the Life Teen time to 6:15pm to 7:15pm to coincide with the Religious Education hour for the 2011-12 school year. I had a request to do this from a family, as it would make transportation simpler if there are siblings in both Religious Education and Life Teen. Please send me your feedback on how you feel about this. I appreciate it!

Just a reminder, see the guidelines for fasting on Ash Wednesday below, and I pray this this Lent will draw you closer to the heart of Jesus
In Christ,
David Alcott
****************************
The Church emphasizes the penitential nature of Ash Wednesday by calling us to fast and abstain from meat. Catholics who are over the age of 18 and under the age of 60 are required to fast, which means that they can eat only one complete meal and two smaller ones during the day, with no food in between. Catholics who are over the age of 14 are required to refrain from eating any meat, or any food made with meat, on Ash Wednesday.
****************************
A Day of Repentance:

The distribution of ashes reminds us of our own mortality and calls us to repentance. In the early Church, Ash Wednesday was the day on which those who had sinned, and who wished to be readmitted to the Church, would begin their public penance. The ashes that we receive are a reminder of our own sinfulness, and many Catholics leave them on their foreheads all day as a sign of humility.

Narnia Marathon! (**UPDATED**)

Hello everyone, hope you are having a wonderful Advent.

Thanks for your patience, we are rescheduling again. :)

OK, this Sunday the Marathon of the first two Narnia films will start at 4:30p.m. and go until about 9:45pm. This will be in the youth room at Sacred Heart School. All teens and their families are welcome, these movies are both rated PG. We will take a little time after each film to briefly talk about the Christian symbolism in the books that the films were based on. This is a free event, please let me know if you can join us so that I can plan. We will have pizza in between the films and snacks and drinks available. If someone would like to bring cookies or bars, that would be excellent. :)


On Thursday, December 16th we are planning on attending the third Narnia film, voyage of the Dawn Treader. There is a 5pm and a 7:15pm showing at Rogers Cinema in Marshfield. Please let me know your preference. The movie is just under two hours long.
Peace!
Dave
