As we finish five  weeks of Lenten Repentance from our sins  and Conversion of our hearts to greater do the Lord's Will for our Good and the Good of the Church and all the World, how  does the way  we have changed during Lent show itself in our lives ?  Are we more loving, caring, and attentive, to the needs are Catholic-Christians.of the poor, the downtrodden, the sorrowful, the suffering, the marginalized, and the disabled ?  If not, why ?  As the authentic observance of self sacrifice during these 40 Days can only have made us more  sensitive and self-giving as Disciples of the Lord Jesus, Who came into the World to serve and not to be served, setting an example for all who are Catholic-Christians.  Pope Francis is also setting just such an example of Holiness and Service, cherishing and exhibiting most as Supreme Pontiff his role as the Servant of the Servants of God; The People of God - Catholics and non Catholics, Christians and UnBelievers, Persons of other Religions and  Spiritualities, Atheists, Homosexuals,...Everyone.  In these final days of Lent and with Holy Week, the  Easter Triduum, and the Pasch, upon us starting tomorrow, to which of these  persons have you reached out  to or served as Jesus The  Christ and the Holy  Father Francis want us to do ?  Now is the time to continue building those relationships and constructing the way of Jesus between ourselves and others, as we honor and carry out our share in the Mission and Ministry of Salvation  Jesus suffered, died, and rose, to attain for Humankind..............fr.tdp
