(From 2022) Be Patient and Grow with God.

Join Dina Marie Hale on this weekly broadcast as she reflects upon the readings for the 3rd Sunday in Lent, Year C. The readings for the Mass are from Exodus, Psalm 103, I Corinthians and the Gospel of Luke. Today we hear Jesus tell the crowd a parable of the fig tree as he stresses the need to repent. We also hear from Exodus, the account of the calling of Moses by God, to lead his people to freedom. Each one of us is also called to first, follow the Lord and then be a leader of others to the love and mercy of God. Now, join us for this Lenten reflection with Dina Marie.Resources used in this recording are:The Word Among Us: Daily Meditations for Catholics www.wau.org Lent 2022 Edition.2022 Workbook for Lectors, Gospel Readers, and Proclaimers of the Word: United States Edition www.LTP.orgThe readings for the Mass for the 3rd Sunday of Lent: Exodus 3:1-8a, 13-15, Psalm 103, I Corinthians 10:1-6, 10-12 and Luke 13:1-9.For the daily liturgical readings visit: www.usccb.org or www.wau.orgThe podcast of this program is at www.materdeiradio.com.Prayers shared in this video are from the Archdiocese of Portland in OregonNovena to the Immaculate Heart of MaryO Most Blessed Mother, heart of love, heart of mercy, ever listening, caring, consoling, hear our prayer.
