Every morning, the Lord God calls out to the sun, “Rise!” and it rises. He calls out to the grass, “Grow!” and it grows. And each morning the Lord asks his Priests, “Do this in memory of Me; do it again.” And the Priest takes bread, and he takes wine, and he makes that same love of God, poured out on Calvary, present on our altars. Do it again. Do it again. If God never grows bored of loving us. May we never grow bored of loving Him.

A Lenten Exploration of our Holy Spaces and Practices
Join us for a six-week deep-dive into the behind-the-scenes aspects of Holy Week in the Roman Catholic Church. Lent is a season of prayer and penance, a wonderful time to learn more about the practices of the Church. There
will be no “homework.”
Learn about the Sacred Spaces and practices that you likely have never seen or noticed, the deep theology behind our liturgies and customs during Holy Week, and the unusual items and intricate preparation that go into theses most Holy liturgies of the year. Sessions are in the undercroft at St. Mary Church.
Meeting dates are February 27, March 5, 13, 20, 27, and April 3, 2023, at 6:30 p.m., and will include time in the church. Snacks and drinks will be provided. Sessions will end by 8:30 p.m. It is not necessary for participants to have attended “Behind the Scenes at Mass” during Advent, 2022.
