Flocknote Friday!
Jesus took bread, said the blessing,
broke it, and giving it to his disciples said,
"Take and eat; this is my body."
Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying,
"Drink from it, all of you,
for this is my blood of the covenant,
which will be shed on behalf of many
for the forgiveness of sins."

Palm Sunday of the Lord's Passion
Because of the winter storm warning (and Father's knee, pray for him), OVERNIGHT Adoration has been canceled. Adoration is in the chapel today and Benediction will be at 6:00 pm.
Stations of the Cross at St. Scholastica have also been canceled.
Holy Thursday – Washing of the Feet
Your help is needed in identifying parishioners to take part in the Washing of the Feet as part of the Holy Thursday liturgy (April 6 at 7:00pm) – a demonstration of the “humility and charity of Christ towards his disciples.” Those chosen to take part in this ritual “represent the variety and the unity of each part of the people of God. Such small groups can be made up of men and women, and it is appropriate that they consist of people young and old, healthy and sick, clerics, consecrated men and women and laity.” (Taken from the 2016 decree In Missa In Cena Domini from the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments)
Please send your nominations to lynn.sticha@npcatholic.org no later than Monday,
April 3. Please include a note about why you are nominating each person.
Thank you!

The Kerygma: Sharing the Gospel, the Good News of God's Saving Love
By learning these seven truths, you can effectively share the Gospel with anyone.
Consider starting with your own faith story, since your individual testimony will make your message even more powerful and effective.
By remembering these seven lines, you have a framework for sharing the Gospel.
1. God loves you and has a plan for your life.
2. Sin separates us from God.
3. Jesus Christ died to save you.
4. Repent and believe the Gospel, the "good news."
5. Be baptized and receive the Holy Spirit.
6. Live in Christ, through His body, the Church.
7. Go forth and make disciples.
