In his Thursday, January 28th homily, Fr. Hallinan challenges us to look at ourselves and not to God when seeking to understand the "sorry shape" of our world: "We as human beings so often shake an angry fist at God and complain about the condition of our world: "Why do You allow this?" And, God shakes His head and says, "Whose fault is this? It's not My fault. It's your fault. You have been told what to do: 'Be a light that will scatter the darkness of the world.' Now, go do it. Be the persons of love you are commanded to be."

Webinar: Catholic Women in Global Health: Mothers and Children
Monday, February 8th at 7 PM on Zoom
Many of the most at-risk mothers and children in the developing world live in rural settings with limited access to even basic health care. CMMB (Catholic Medical Mission Board) works with community health workers, village health committees, local clinics, and hospitals to ensure that care is delivered to families living where the road ends. Engaging community members in this process has proved especially critical during the pandemic when seeking health care might itself be a source of risk. Finding ways to reduce the risk of Coronavirus spreading while still promoting the most basic health services that each year prevent the deaths of thousands of women and children around the world has created an unprecedented challenge. Community-based approaches are valuable and the strengthening of clinics and hospitals is still a necessary component of life-saving solutions.
Moderator:
Jana I. Cuggino, Head of Strategy and Marketing, KPMG Healthcare and Life Sciences
Panelists:
Mary Beth Powers, President and CEO, Catholic Medical Mission Board
Darnelle Bernier, Vice President, Medical Donations Program, CMMB
Dr. Claudia Llanten M.D., Senior Maternal and Child Health Care Specialist, CMMB

Parish Men's Faith Group: The Men of Lent
Tuesday, February 16th & Tuesday, March 16th at 7 PM on Zoom
Presentations and discussions will explore the men we encounter in the Sunday Lenten lectionary readings. Themes will include how we can serve as beacons of faith in a chaotic world, how God works through our flaws and wounds, learning to discern the voice of the inner prophet, and saying yes to God’s invitation to vulnerability and surrender.
The February 16th gathering will focus on Noah, Abraham, and Cyrus; on March 16th, we will visit Jeremiah, Isaiah, and Jesus.
Brian B. Pinter, Pastoral Associate, will present and facilitate the discussion.

Painting and Patriotism
Wednesday, February 24th at 7 PM on Zoom
Presented by Fr. Leo J. O'Donovan, S.J.
Beset by a world-wide, deadly pathogen, suffering from severe economic distress, painfully aware of our heritage of racial injustice, and alarmed by divisions in our nation, we Americans need new reasons for patriotism. But not just any patriotism. A critical, socially aware, and committed patriotism.
Join Fr. Leo J. O'Donovan, S.J., in visiting American paintings in the Metropolitan Museum of Art to find light for what such a patriotism might be like.

Falling into Grace
Thursdays, February 25th to March 25th, at 7 PM on Zoom
Lent invites us to prepare for resurrection by allowing God’s grace to redeem and transform our broken, wounded places. The presentations and discussions will explore how we find grace in struggle and suffering, meditation practices that prepare the heart to receive grace, biblical stories of grace, letting go images of God that no longer serve us, and how we cooperate with grace. Brian B. Pinter, Pastoral Associate, will present and facilitate the discussion.

Last summer, Fr. Yesalonia announced an ambitious expansion of our livestream capabilities at the parish.
We will soon have the capability to livestream Sunday Mass from Church. Additionally, monitors will be installed in the Church and so that pre-recorded music can be broadcast into the Church during services.
Eventually, services and events will be livestreamed from the Lady Chapel, the Church, and Wallace Hall.
