6TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME 6TO DOMINGO EN TIEMPO ORDINARIO From Rick Hardy ST. PETER Pastoral Associate CATHOLIC CHURCH Ashes for a Clean Heart WILL BE closed for the duration The Responsorial Psalm for Ash Wednesday is Psalm of the construction project 51. The antiphon is “Be merciful, O God, for we have Daily Mass in the Parish Hall sinned.” And the third verse, as used in the Liturgy, is this: The St. Kateri Chapel (Classroom) is open 8:00am-5:00pm for personal A clean heart create for me, O God prayer and devotion. and a steadfast spirit renew within me. The Tabernacle is in the St. Kateri Chapel Cast me not out from your presence and your Holy Spirit take not from me. Confessions on Saturdays 3:30pm-4:30pm and by appointment Ash Wednesday is a day of paradox. We pray for a clean heart but we put ashes on our heads. (More on that, Masses. Open to the Public shortly.) In the Gospel, Jesus says “when you give alms, do M,T,TH,F 8:30am not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so Wednesday —No Mass— that your almsgiving may be secret. When you pray, go to Saturday 5:00pm your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in Sunday 8:00am and 10:30am secret. When you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, so that you may not appear to be fasting....” All weekend Masses at St. Peter The we all put ashes on our foreheads and go to are Live Streamed McDonald’s to order Filet-o-Fish.

It is hard to see them with us, but abstinence they deserve to be. There is far too much violence in this world and the result of that violence is the assault on human life. Many are forced to leave the place they call home in search of safer ground, finding few if any along the way who will help them. How different today’s Gospel story would be if Jesus gave in to what was politically correct at that time. The leper would have been turned away and a soul, already beat- en down by disease and fear, would have experienced an even deeper wound. Jesus wouldn’t have captured much attention from anyone, nor would he have mirrored the Fa- ther’s compassion and love. Where do we stand Ash Wednesday with all of this?
