Family Messenger,February 21, 2012

Loving God,
You call us to turn away from whatever keeps us from loving you
with our whole heart, mind, and soul.
We pray that through our prayer and sacrifice
we will come closer to you during this holy season of Lent.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.


A Message from the Principal
Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. During these 40 days, we prepare for Easter by turning our hearts to God through prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. Every year on Ash Wednesday, Catholics receive a cross of ashes on their foreheads as a sign of repentance.

The Ash Wednesday Mass schedule at Incarnation Church is as follows:
6:30 a.m.
8:30 a.m.
11:00 a.m. (All School Mass)
5:30 p.m.
7:00 p.m.

May this Lenten season renew our sprits and be a time to strengthen our relationships with God.

Sincerely,\

Ms. Olivia Carrillo
Principal
