Third Sunday of Lent
Theme: In today’s first reading we are given the Ten commandments: the first and foremost is a single-hearted devotion to God. The fourth through the last gives examples of how love of God goes hand-in-hand with loving care of other people. In the gospel Jesus’ anger leads him to action challenging the economic exchange that underlies sacrificial thinking: If we offer this sacrifice to God, then God will forgive our sins or bestow blessings on us. We do good, not for personal or economic gain, but to come to know God. God invites us to direct our energy to relationships and ways of being in the world that bring life.
The Word
First Reading: Exodus 20:1-17 Responsorial Psalm: Ps 19:8, 9, 10, 11 Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 1:22-25 Gospel: John 2:13-25 Daily Readings for the Week |

Sunday PrayerIntercessionsAs the church begins a new liturgical year, let us give voice
to our prayers and petitions. That world leaders learn ways of negotiation to come to policies and ways of acting that support all people and the earth. We pray . . . Lord, hear our prayer. That we, as church, come closer to God so as to act in ways that enliven ourselves, all creation, and the earth, to live in harmony We pray . . . Lord, hear our prayer. That we offer help to those addicted to drugs or alcohol. We pray . . . Lord, hear our prayer. That those who have died be received into the loving arms of God. We pray . . . Lord, hear our prayer. That we continue to follow Jesus’ way of true repentance and conversion of heart during this Lenten season. We pray . . . Lord, hear our prayer. Help us God, to believe and act with you in our life, leading us to wholeness. For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom; and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength. We pray this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
