A MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR
Dear Holy Apostles Parish Family,
This weekend we begin the season of Lent,
with our focus being SURRENDERING TO
GOD. I looked at some of the crosses hang-
ing in our narthex and you see what it is that
we want to surrender to God: anxiety, grief,
loss, sickness, job, family struggles and real-
izing God is with us. It is a time that we real-
ize in the YEAR OF MERCY, that God is calling
us closer to him so He can help us.
I spend a great deal of time with people who
are sick, those who struggle with grief or ad-
dictions, plus much more. Daily we face
questions that have no clear answer but we
are called to keep walking with God. Some-
times we get worn out and think of giving up.
This is the moment that defines our lives.
The moment I say, “I can’t,” is the moment
we let God do for us what we cannot do for
ourselves.
The thing that ultimately shapes and defines
us is how we let God help us and love us.
Ultimately, when we meet the face of God
that is what it comes down to, so it is good to
learn how to surrender, so God can help us.
Please check out our Lenten series of talks
on three Wednesday nights at 7:30 PM
following Stations of the Cross (February 17
and 24 and March 2) to pursue this further.
Have a Blessed Lent!
Father Paul
SURRENDER TO MERCY Week 1: Believe in the greatness of God
All that we are, all that we have, is from God.
Like Jesus being tested in the desert, if we
truly believe in the
greatness of God, we
have no need for
empty promises that
keep us from salva-
tion. If we have faith
we do not need to test
God. Everything we
have is a gift we have
been given, for which the proper response is
gratitude. We surrender our false pride by
recognizing God's generosity, and returning
that abundance by living in truth and doing
the good work of building the kingdom on
earth.
