Third Sunday of Lent

These things happened as examples for us,
so that we might not desire evil things, as they did.
These things happened to them as an example,
and they have been written down as a warning to us,
upon whom the end of the ages has come.
Therefore, whoever thinks he is standing secure
should take care not to fall.

1 Corinthians 10:6,11-12

Stations of the Cross

Each Friday in Lent at 7:00pm, except for March 19th, Father Dvorak will lead us through the Stations of the Cross. The Stations of the Cross are an excellent opportunity at the end of each week to reflect on your own transgressions and the suffering Jesus endures to redeem you.
