Lent is a special time to experience God’s mercy and healing forgiveness through the Sacrament of Reconciliation. There are no more consoling words than when the priest says, “I absolve you from your sins...” Come and reconnect with our God who is all compassionate and forgiving. Instructions on “How to make a good confession” can be found in the narthex pamphlet rack. Also available there are separate “examinations of conscience” for married persons, single persons, teenagers & young adults, and children.
In keeping with the Easter theme of renewal and rebirth, the prayer garden is coming alive, right on schedule. Tulips and
hyacinths are popping up all along the garden paths. The Star Magnolia is budding, and the ground covers are starting to
turn green.The golden winter colors of the grasses and shrubs are still adding texture and visual excitement to the garden.
The shorter grass on the backside of the berm by the bench is an incredible color of golden white; come see it before we cut
it down to let the new growth emerge.
This year, the garden theme will be MOON GLOW, featuring an all white center annual bed. "In a garden, the extremes of
value and purity associated with white give it more power than the richest red, the brightest yellow, or even the most
arresting blue. White absorbs no other color and is, therefore, uncompromisingly pure. White is a prima donna, and
demands center stage.” What better color to welcome spring and Easter than white. White flowers actually glow at dusk and
into the evening, so our garden this year will be a sensual delight of sight and fragrances well into the evening. The garden
will be planted May 8-9-10.
