Dear Friends in Jesus Christ, Traditionally, the Fourth Sunday of Lent is called Rejoice Sunday. Anticipating Easter joy, today’s readings invite us to rejoice by being reconciled with God through repentance and confession of our sins and by celebrating our coming home to be with our loving and forgiving God. As we have only few weeks to celebrate the Easter, and as we go through many kinds of preparation for the greater

celebration of the Easter, we are also called to prepare ourselves by reconciling with God and one another. Therefore, we have scheduled the penance service on 15th of April on Monday evening by 6.00 pm. So, let us make use of it. Here are some reflections for us to meditate. “The greatest security against sin is to be shocked at its presence." Thomas Carlyle "Sin has four characteristics: self-sufficiency instead of faith; self-will instead of submission; self-seeking instead of benevolence; self-righteousness instead of humility." E. Paul Hovey "It is much easier to repent of sins that we have committed, than to repent of those we intend to commit." Josh Billings "Sin. Rub out the first and last letters, and you have "I"--or carnal self--the root of all sin." Anonymous "Sin is man's declaration of independence of God." Anonymous Sincerely, Fr Joseph

Visit www.crsricebowl.org for more information.

The week-end of April 6th and 7th you will be able to: 1: sign a list that you would like us to call and give you further information 2: fill out an application form for membership 3: stop at the table to have any of your questions answered I pray that you will give some thought to joining the Knights and don’t forget it is about family also. Ask the Knights’ wives and children how they see the benefits being part of the Knights of Columbus. PGK Blaine Douglas
