FROM THE PASTOR'S DESK
This is Catholic Appeal Weekend here at St. Christine’s. We, like all parishes throughout the Archdiocese, will be showing a video message from Cardinal Sean at all Masses and asking every Catholic household to participate by making a pledge. The Catholic Appeal is a once-a-year pledge drive to benefit the many central ministries and services of the Archdiocese of Boston. The Appeal is to our Archdiocese what the weekly offertory is to our parish. Because of the economic downturn, support of the Catholic Appeal is more urgent this year.
Thank you in advance for joining with parishioners throughout the Archdiocese’s 291 parishes to carry on and renew the broader work of our Church. Every gift matters. For more information, please visit www.BostonCatholicAppeal.org.
God bless you............... Father Tom

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION

GRADE 5 - Penance
All of our fifth grades students will participate in the Sacrament of Reconciliation on Thursday, March 18th at 4:00 pm. Students will meet with their teachers no later than 3:50 pm in the church. Parents may stay or plan to pick up their children at 5:00 pm in the church.

AID TO THE EARTHQUAKE VICTIMS
Our 7th and 8th Grade CCD students will sponsor a fundraiser to aid the earthquake victims in Haiti by selling tulips and lilies in the foyer of the church after all the Masses on the weekends of March 6/7, 13/14 and 20/21. The cost of each plant is $10 and orders must be prepaid. Flowers can be picked up on Palm Sunday weekend (March 27/28) in the parish hall. All proceeds will be sent to Haiti through the Catholic Relief Services. Thank you for your support.

CORI FORMS
The Archdiocese of Boston requires all parish volunteers to fill out an annual Cori Form. On the weekend of March 6/7, you may fill out a form in the foyer of the church after all the Masses. A staff member will be available to accept and verify your form. Please bring picture identification such as your driver’s license with you. Or you may pick up a Cori form at church or rectory, fill it out and either mail it to the rectory with a copy of your driver’s license or bring the form to rectory for verification. Thank you for your cooperation.

What fig leaves do I need to leave behind this Lent in order to return to God?
