Invite a Friend to Adoration!
As part of our Lenten Blitz Outreach we are runningads each week in The Country Chronicle and the Fort Jackson Leader, inviting people to our special time ofadoration. While the main body of the ad remains thesame, each week there is a special insert that covers adifferent Catholic teaching on the Eucharist.
By running these ads, we’re hoping not only toencourage people to visit Transfiguration, but also to give a greater understand to non-Catholics about our faith and practice.
Following is the text from this week’s special insert:
How does the Old Testament point to the Eucharist?
Throughout the Old Testament, one can see signs of God preparing his people for the gift of the Holy Eucharist.

Abraham offered a sacrifice with Melchizedek, the high
priest of Salem (later Jerusalem). Abraham gave one-
tenth of his possessions to Melchizedek, but
Melchizedek offered Abraham an offering of bread and
wine (Genesis 14:18-20).
Later the Temple in Jerusalem was built in that same
location. There the priests had a table on which they
would place on offering of bread and wine to God. This
bread is often referred to as the Showbread. It is also
named the Bread of the Presence (Exodus 25:30). One
interesting thing about this Hebrew word for
“presence” is that it can also be translated as “face.”
So, the Showbread in the temple is also the Bread of
the Face of God.
In that same city, Jesus offered bread and wine at the
Last Supper. He called it his Body and his Blood. He
gave his disciples a special gift of himself, so that he
would continue to be present with them in a special
way. This is still our most precious gift, by which we
too experience the living
presence of Christ in our
midst.
Some gifts are too good to
keep to ourselves—would
you consider inviting a
friend to our special time of
adoration this Lent? Who
knows what difference it
could make in their life?

Christmas In Lent? The Annunciation of the Lord
A High Holy Day
The Solemnity of the Annunciation, Saturday, March 25th, commemorates a sublime moment in the history of time, the moment when the Second Divine Person of the most Holy Trinity assumed human nature in the womb of the Virgin Mary.
As this is a Solemnity, so our Lenten penance obligations are lifted. Forecasting the blessed event of Christmas, it is a great time to do something special as a family.
See our Facebook page for recipes, activity ideas and more information:
