5th SUNDAY OF LENT

/ From the Pastor, Parish Life / By

krzyz2Today we celebrate the 5th Sunday of Lent. The Lenten season is coming to the end. The next Sunday – the Palm Sunday will start the Holy Week which is the part of the feast of Easter. We will consider the main important mysteries of our faith in that whole week. Today we cover the crosses in the church to take it out of our eyes and to find it in our hearts. To open our spiritual eyes on Jesus Passion in our sinful perspective, as we will see in the Gospel the judgement of Jesus over the woman who was catch on adultery.

The Eucharist is the same meeting with Jesus as the sinful woman took place 2000 years ago. We are in position of that woman, we are the sinners, and we are release of the sins after that meeting. But we have to recognize our sins and accept that according to the law we will be death.
