Keep
your eyes open!...
Lent, 2022
(Ecc
3:1-7) All things have their season, and in their times all things pass
under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant, and
a time to pluck up that which is planted. A time to kill, and a time to
heal. A time to destroy, and a time to build. A time to weep, and a
time to laugh. A time to mourn, and a time to dance. A time to scatter
stones, and a time to gather. A time to embrace, and a time to be far
from embraces. A time to get, and a time to lose. A time to keep, and a
time to cast away. A time to rend, and a time to sew. A time to keep
silence, and a time to speak.

EXCERPT ARCHBISHOP SAMUEL J. AGUILA: Archbishop Aquila joins calls for prayer and fasting for an immediate end to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine
In response to the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, Archbishop Samuel J. Aquila issued the below statement:
With great sadness and anguish the world has witnessed the beginning of
a violent Russian invasion of Ukraine and its people. Sadly, once again
humanity has listened to the voice of the evil one, who brings hatred,
confusion, division, and war rather than the peace of Christ. Only in
listening to the voice of God will true peace and justice come. I join
Pope Francis in calling on all people to pray and fast for peace and an
immediate end to this time of war.
My prayers today are with the Ukrainian and Russian people. I pray for
their safety and peace of heart, for their conversion, and for Vladimir
Putin to immediately withdraw his troops and cease all strikes.
I ask the priests in the Archdiocese of Denver to pray the Mass in Time
of War and Civil Disturbance during these days ahead, including this
coming Sunday, and I encourage the faithful to pray the Rosary each day
and offer their prayers and fasting for world peace and the conversion
of the world.
As we approach this Lenten season, let us be reminded that Christ alone
can deliver us from this broken world, from the evil one who has
captured the hearts of so many. Our hope and trust is in Jesus our Lord
and Savior who alone can give true peace!

The TRIB
TIMES will not
be updated again this year
during the Lenten season, extending to the first week after
Easter. My computer time will be limited to 30
minutes
each morning and evening during Lent. I will read all emails I receive,
and will answer all that I can, time permitting. I may also
occasionally
email non-reformatted news articles to Trib Times subscribers that I
find
to be of particular interest. But barring a major event (admittedly not unlikely these days), the Trib
Times
web page itself will not be updated.
I
apologize to all who have recently subscribed but
will keep your email information for use after my return. God
willing,
the next issue of the Trib Times should be shortly after Divine Mercy
Sunday, April 24, 2022. Please keep me in your
prayers, and be
assured that
I will do the same.

Thoughts
and Sayings of Saint Margaret Mary: Self-effacement--Detachment
2. As all things find rest only in their center
and are irresistibly drawn to what is natural to them, even so my heart,
wholly absorbed in its center, the humble Heart of Jesus, has an unquenchable
thirst for humiliations, contempt and oblivion on the part of creatures,
and thus I never feel happier than when I am conformed to my crucified
Spouse.
