Lenten Stations and Supper Series

Our Lenten series will return at 6pm on Fridays in Lent. Stations of the Cross begins at 6pm followed by Benediction, and then at 7pm we have a simple meal (soup and salad) in the Undercroft. Our talks this year will be based on Rod Dreher's Live Not By Lies. This isn't a straight book study, but his book will be the starting place for our talks and discussion. You can order it now in order to better understand how to fortify the local church amidst pressures from a secularizing world -- a world that is becoming increasingly hostile to our faith. You can sign up to attend here and you can also sign up to help with food here. Pot-providence soup, bread, and salad.

Here is the Live Not By Lies discussion Schedule:
March 5th: Mark of the Heart -- surveillance capitalism. Matt Collins will share some industry insights. LBNL Chapter 4
March 12th: Truth and Memory: Alban Mullaj will discuss his experience in communist Albania and parallels regarding the punitive politics of today. LNBL Chapters 5 and 6
March 19th: The importance of families and small groups of faith. LNBL Chapters 7 and 8
March 26th: Dreher's vision for suffering and final salvation. LNBL Chapters 9 and 10

Men's Lenten Fellowship: Agere Contra

A group of men are gathering for an ascetic program for Lent that has branched out from our Exodus 90 group. This program is only for Lent, which some men thought would be more helpful than the 90-day plan. It's open to others, you can contact Mike Hussle for more information. Here's the flier: agere contra.pdf

Laetare Sunday

We will have an 8am Spoken Mass and the 10am Sung Mass sung. Coffee Hours are back! Please visit our signup page to help. The live streamed 10am Mass will be available on our YouTube channel. You can also watch by clicking the video below:

The bulletin to accompany the Mass in PDF format is available in the YouTube description.

Since Baltimore City is once again limiting Mass attendance, we're providing a signup. It's not necessary for you to sign up ahead of time in order to attend Mass--this just ensures that those who sign up have a place in the event that the church becomes too full. However, we haven't yet had attendance exceed allowable limits because the safe capacity of the worship space is much greater than the size of our pews. As always during the pandemic, we ask everyone over 2 years of age to wear masks and that families to maintain a safe distance of 6 feet from each other at all times.

Men's Lenten Retreat

Mark your calendars for our St. Joseph Men's Retreat on Saturday, March 20th from 8am to 1pm. We'll begin with Mass, end with Benediction, and include a lot of time for silent prayer and confessions. The theme will be living out the grace of fatherhood. This is a pressing need when young children are in the home, but all men are called to be fathers. Fatherhood is intrinsic to our vocation as men, whether or not we have biological children ourselves. We're called to be confident in this grace and embrace it fully. This leads to both spiritual awareness and practical application. To register for the retreat, sign up here.
