Second Sunday of Lent

Here are the readings for the Second Sunday of Lent, March 4, 2012:

Genesis 22: 1-2, 9a, 10-13, 15-18
Psalm 116: 10, 15-19
Romans 8: 31b-34
Mark 9: 2-10

This encouraging passage is from Paul's letter to the Romans:
Brothers and sisters:
If God is for us, who can be against us?
He who did not spare his own Son
but handed him over for us all,
how will he not also give us everything else along with him?

As we continue our Lenten journey, entering the desert to confront our particular temptations and weaknesses, can you find in this scripture a reassurance that God wants only the best for you? And if so, what might that mean for your own ongoing conversion?

There is no RCIA session this Sunday- we will meet at 3:20pm at St. Thomas More Church in Chapel Hill for the 4pm Rite of Election. If you wish to car pool from St. Andrew's, we will leave at 2:45pm.
