Lenten Scripture reflection series with Fr. CraigFr. Craig would like to invite you to dive deeper into the Sunday Scriptures with him after Sunday morning Masses. Plan on sticking around 1 hour after Mass. Father will lead us in a discussion about the Gospel, the homily or any questions you might have that week. He is looking forward to having this time with you to listen together to what God is speaking to us each week during Lent. *Due to the bad weather last week and other?weeks, Father has not been in Canby much recently, so he is switching to Mass in?Canby this weekend. Therefore, he will not be doing the Lenten series in?Ghent this weekend. There will be 3 dates to do this Lenten reflection, one at each parish:Sunday March 24 - after 9:30 Mass in CanbySunday March 31 - after 10:30 Mass in St. LeoSunday April 7 - after 10:30 Mass in Ghent142875-1822450MESSAGE FROM FR CRAIGBy: Author UnknownPLEASE Take a few minutes out of your busy lives to read this. How do you answer this question?Satan called a worldwide Convention.In his opening address to his demons, he said, “We can’t keep the Christians from going to church. We can’t keep them from reading their Bibles and knowing the truth. We can’t even keep them from biblical thoughts of virtue. But we can do something else” “We can keep them from forming an intimate, abiding experience in Christ. If they gain that connection with Jesus, our power over them is broken. So, let them go to church, let them have their thoughts of virtue, but steal their time so they can’t gain that experience with Jesus Christ”.“This is what I want you to do, evil angels. Distract them from gaining hold of their Savior and maintaining that vital connection throughout their day.” “How shall we do this?” shouted his evil angels.“Keep them busy with the nonessentials of life and invest unnumbered schemes to occupy their minds,” he answered. “Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, then borrow, borrow, borrow. Convince them to work six or seven days a week, with both husbands and wives working 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their lifestyles. Keep them from spending time with their children. By these tactics alone, we will fragment their families.“Overstimulate their minds so they cannot hear that still small voice of the Holy Spirit. Entice them to play the radio or CD player whenever they drive, to keep the TV, the DVD player, and their video games going constantly in their homes. And see to it that every store and restaurant in the world plays music constantly. This will jam their minds and keep them from Communion with Christ.“Fill their coffee tables with magazines and newspapers. Pound their minds with news 24 hours each day. Invade their driving moments with billboards. Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, sweepstakes, mail order catalogues, and every kind of newsletter and promotion offering free products, services, and false hopes.“In their recreation, entice them be excessive. Flood Sunday mornings with sports and recreation. Exhaust them, so that they will be too tired for serious bible study and prayer. Exhaust them so that they will have no time for Christian hospitality. Exhaust so that they will have no heart for ministry. Keep them going to amusement parks, sporting events, concerts and movies; keep them consumed with the cares of this life? Have them return from their recreation exhausted, disquieted, and unprepared for the coming week. And when they do meet for Mass, instead of spiritual fellowship, have them involve in gossip and small talk so that they leave with troubled consciences and unsettled emotion”.“Let them be involved in soul-winning. but crowd their lives with so many causes that they have no time to seek power from Christ. Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their health, and family unity for the good of the cause.”It was quite a convention in the end! The evil angels went eagerly to their assignments causing Christians everywhere to get busy, busy, busy and rush here and there. **Has the devil been successful in his scheme?Hope you are able to take time out of your busy schedule to pray daily and attend Mass once a week. Don’t let the devil take your time away from prayer and the celebration of Mass!PRAYER SERVICE FOR HOPE AND HEALING Prayer Service for Hope and Healing. 7-8:30 p.m. Friday, March 22, Church of St. Peter, Canby?Are you struggling or hurting?

Please join us in prayer for an end to infanticide: “Jesus, Lord of Life, transform the hearts of our elected leaders to recognize that infanticide is wrong and must not be tolerated. We especially pray for our Senator(s) __________ (and __________). Open his/her/their heart(s) and mind(s) to recognize and defend the precious gift of every human life.” Or (if your senators supported the prohibition on infanticide) “Jesus, Lord of Life, transform the hearts of all elected leaders to recognize that infanticide is wrong and must not be tolerated.

They will be asking their legislators to support a bill (HF 1140/SF 1533) that would create a marketplace where women can be rented and children become products that can be bought and sold. It is important that your legislators hear from you before then. Ask them to oppose HF 1140/SF 1533 and to support?Surrogacy Abuse Prevention Act (HF 1000/SF 1152) to help ensure women and children do not become wombs for rent and products for sale.Well-meaning people--perhaps even our family or friends--have chosen surrogacy (contracting with another woman to carry a child for them) to satisfy their deep longing to become parents, despite the challenges of infertility. Though we may be touched by the stories of those for whom surrogacy was an apparent success, we cannot ignore the?many stories?that did not have such a happy ending. In fact, surrogacy arrangements undermine the basic rights and well-being of women and children. For this reason, many countries and states have either banned or strictly limited surrogacy arrangements.For years, Minnesota surrogacy proponents (surrogacy brokers, lawyers, fertility clinics, pharmaceutical companies) have been pushing for Minnesota to enact legislation that would enable a commercial surrogacy market.?Unfortunately, their flawed legislation would unwittingly allow the industry to prey upon socioeconomically vulnerable women to serve as surrogates, as well as turn children into products to be bought and sold.?However, the Surrogacy Abuse Prevention Act (HF 1000/SF 1152) aims to prevent the exploitation of women and the commodification of children. Asking for your representative and senator to support the Surrogacy Abuse Prevention Act can?help to prevent predatory, for-profit surrogacy agencies and brokers from preying on women, especially the poor who are most vulnerable.Take Action***If you have:One?Minute:?Visit the Catholic Advocacy Network Action Center to learn more about the bill and?send a message?to your legislators asking for their support of?HF 1000/SF 1152?- The Surrogacy Abuse and Prevention Act.Three?Minutes:?Call your legislators,?and share the message below?with him or her.?Fifteen?Minutes:?Pray a Rosary and offer it up for our legislators that their hearts and minds be open to God's grace, and that they would always come to the defense of life, human dignity, and the common good.More Time:?Visit??to learn more about this issue. 2994660121920BENEFIT FOR COLE LOUWAGIEA benefit is planned for Cole Louwagie, Son of Derek & Kristen Louwagie, to help with medical expenses, lodging, etc. on March 24, from 10 am -1 pm at the Cottonwood Community Center.
