For
Your Information
Imagine how Epiphany will be after our
debt has been eliminated and we can devote
our monthly income to increased ministry
services. O’Keefe Hall will include
meeting rooms and we are exploring costs
to replace the convent elevator for
accessibility to meetings rooms on the
convent floor.
Our
growing ministries will have dedicated
meeting areas. Think about expanded
conference areas for our parish groups to
use. Consider additional workrooms
available for our volunteers. Think about
how the debt reduction and renovations
will enhance our parish community
experience.
Epiphany
is a spirit filled community of liturgical
celebration, and spiritual, educational
and pastoral ministries. I am grateful to
God for our parishioners, leaders, and
friends, who provide for our beautiful
church and parish facilities. Now, we, you
and I,must plan for the future, enhance
and update our facilities to fulfill our
parish goals.
This
Saturday and Sunday, a brief survey will
be conducted during all Masses.your
opinion and ideas are valuable to us. You
will perform an important service for
Church of the Epiphany by participating in
this survey. Thank you in advance for
helping our parish discern the best plan
for our future vision and ongoing growth,
and I pray that God will continue to bless
you and your family as we move forward. As
your pastor, please know of my gratitude
for all that you do in helping our
parish.

Reflections
Today’s
Reflection
Jn
8:1-11
Once again the scribes and Pharisees
are trying to trap Jesus. They bring him a
woman caught in the act of adultery. The
Law of Moses requires that the adulteress
should die. If Jesus does not agree, he
will look like someone who does not
respect the Law of Moses. To the
Pharisees’ amazement, Jesus at first
ignores them. Then he stops them in their
tracks with an unexpected challenge:
“Let the one among you who is without
sin be the first to throw a stone at
her.” One by one the judges and
critics drop their stones and drift away.
Now that they recognize their own need for
forgiveness, they are not ready to condemn
someone else. Neither does Jesus condemn
the woman. He simply requires her to turn
away from sin. Now she has a chance for a
new beginning.
Next
Week's Reflection
Lk
22:14-23,56
Today is called both Palm Sunday and
Passion Sunday. Since the early centuries
of the Church, Christians have carried
palm branches in joyful processions on
this day. We sing or shout, “Blessed
is he who comes in the name of the
Lord” like the crowd that followed
Jesus into Jerusalem at the beginning of
what we now call Holy Week. This year we
hear the passion account from Luke’s
Gospel. It tells a moving story of Jesus,
who consoles the “good criminal”
and forgives those who nailed him to the
cross.
1. We are not left alone. Have you
had this experience?
2. Why do you think Jesus accepted
this kind of death?
