I think of how last week, I had different Lenten reconciliation services, which included our parish, the two parishes in Vicksburg, St Joseph school in Madison, and St Mary parish in Yazoo City. Making ourselves available as priests to hear the confessions of the faithful in different places around the Diocese is an important part of our Lenten responsibilities. If you have not gone to confession yet during Lent, we still have our confession times before the Saturday vigil mass at our parish here in Clinton. Also, this Sunday at the 10:30 am mass, we celebrate the tradition of the first scrutiny of the Church, a rite for those preparing for entry into the Church at Easter who have not been baptized yet. This rite reflects the Gospel reading today of Jesus’ interaction with the woman at the well. I wish you all blessings as we continue our journey through Lent. Father Lincoln.
