Saint Margaret Mary Parish

This year Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, February 17. As part of our community’s observance of Lent, we ask all families to participate in Catholic Relief Service’s Operation Rice Bowl, a program of prayer, fasting, learning, and giving. Please be sure to take home a Rice Bowl packet and follow this simple yet powerful Lenten practice. Visit http://orb.crs.org for more information.

TAIZE SERVICE

Sunday, March 21,7:00 p.m.

Come experience Taize Prayer

at St. Margaret Mary this Lent.

The choir and musicians of St. Margaret Mary together offer this very special evening of prayer.

Prayer in the spirit of the Taize Community is a meditative form of common prayer. Gathered in the presence of Christ we sing uncomplicated, repetitive songs, uncluttered by too many words, allowing the mystery of God to become tangible through the beauty of simplicity. A few words sung over and over again reinforce the meditative quality of prayer. They express a basic reality of faith that can be grasped by the intellect and that gradually penetrates the whole being.
