3rd Sunday of Lent:
March 19, 2017
That we may joyfully use the gifts God
has given us to help spread the message
of the Risen Christ to all those who
need to know our Savior’s love and grace.
“Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty
again.” John 4:13
Jesus reminds us that material things, even some-
thing as basic as water, can never satisfy us for long.
When we build our lives around material posses-
sions we always want more. True Joy and Peace on-
ly comes when we follow Jesus; when we become
more “God-centered” and less “self-centered.”

Que podamos usar con gozo los dones que
Dios nos ha dado para ayudar a difundir el
mensaje de Cristo Resucitado a todos
aquellos que necesitan conocer el amor y la
gracia de nuestro Salvador.
"Todo el que beba esta agua tendrá sed otra vez."
Juan 4:13
Jesús nos recuerda que las cosas materiales, incluso algo
tan básico como el agua, nunca nos pueden satisfacer por
mucho tiempo. Cuando construimos nuestras vidas al-
rededor de posesiones materiales siempre queremos más.
La verdadera alegría y paz sólo nos llega cuando se-
guimos a Jesús; cuando nos volvemos más "centrados en
Dios" y menos "egocéntricos.”
