Ash Wednesday 6 Februray 2008

This homily (9 minutes) was given by Fr. Thomas Weise at 7pm Mass. Paul notes that, "We are Ambassadors for Christ, as if God were appealing through us." The time of Lent is ambassador school for Christians. We are to learn through Prayer, Fasting, and Alms Giving how to represent God's Love to a World that so needs it. We are to be open and vulnerable to God, in fact broken hearted, "rend your hearts, not your garments."
