Welcomes You“I was blind and

now I see!”

We are used by God to shine the light of Christ in the lives

of others. A challenging Lenten reflection: Is the light

of Christ shining in our hearts? Is the light of Christ reflecting

out from us to others?

Reading from Today’s MassYou were once darkness,

but now you are light in the Lord.

Live as children of light, for light produces every

kind of goodness and righteousness and truth.

Ephesians 5:8-14

By God’s grace, Francis learned to see the face of God in the leper and to love what once he had despised. May God help us love the lepers of today.
