Lent prepares us to renew our baptismal promises

Seeing with Jesus' Eyes by Fr. Donald Lange

Lent is a 40-day season of prayer, fasting, good works, and penance. Lent prepares us to renew our baptismal promises with deep faith at Easter when we celebrate the paschal mystery, the heart of our faith.

In the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy it says “Lent disposes the faithful, who more diligently hear the Word of God and devote themselves to prayer, to celebrate the Paschal mystery.”

Ayuda a Haití: El inicio de una Cuaresma de Amor

Bajo el libro del evangelio por Obispo Robert C. Morlino

Esta columna está dirigida a los fieles de la Diócesis de Madison. Cualquier circulación más amplia transgrede la intención del Obispo.

Queridos hermanos en Cristo:

Como dije la semana pasada, ¡ustedes, sus parroquias y sus pastores tienen que ser altamente encomendados en general! Como familia diocesana, hemos demostrado mucho amor por el prójimo al recaudar en nuestra diócesis la cantidad nada despreciable de 508 130.02 dólares para nuestros hermanos y hermanas de Haití.

Muy poco después del devastador terremoto, el Papa Benedicto XVI prometió al pueblo de Haití las oraciones y el apoyo concreto de los católicos en todo el mundo. Incluso antes de que el Santo Padre hiciera estas promesas, Catholic Relief Services ya estaba en Haití con los heridos y los fallecidos. Ustedes y sus parroquias preguntaban “¿qué podemos hacer?” y nuestras oficinas diocesanas estaban organizando la manera en que podíamos responder.

Tridentine Masses gaining popularity in Madison area

To the editor:

With great interest I read a reprint of the “Latin Mass Appeal” op-ed originally published in the New York Times on November 29, 2009. The op-ed discussed some developments underlying the construction of the Novus Ordo Mass, specifically liturgical changes forced by Cardinal Annibale Bugnini that were not called for by Vatican II, bringing liturgical “chaos and banality” to the Sacrifice of the New Law “in which Christ, through the ministry of the Priest, offers Himself to God.”

In addition, the op-ed pointed out an ongoing counterrevolution fueled by Benedict XVI’s Summorum Pontificum with its liberation of the Tridentine Mass or the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.

Law encourages children to become sexually active

To the editor:

What in the darkness of Hades has possessed the Democrats in the Wisconsin Legislature to pass the falsely-named Healthy Youth Act (AB 458/SB 324)? This bill requires teachers of human growth and development to make our children proficient in contraception.

I do not want our 12-year-old children handed a cucumber and a condom to prove they know how to engage in sexual activity. Condoms do not eliminate venereal disease and pregnancy, but do invite sexual activity.

Pro-life message is about conversion of hearts

To the editor:

Thank you for the front page article on Pope Benedict’s Lenten message about conversion (Catholic Herald, February 11 issue). This ties in exactly with Chris Slattery’s message at the February 6, 2010, pro-life rally at the UW Library Mall. Chris said the pro-life message is about conversion.

So, put them together and you get this: Our Lenten journey is converting hearts to receive, and pass on, God’s love. We want UW’s abortionist, Dr. Caryn Dutton, and all of Madison’s OB-GYN doctors who commit abortions, to have a conversion of heart to receive, and pass on, God’s love.

State Senate improves access to public defender

Eye on the Capitol by John Huebscher

Since Wisconsin does not permit capital punishment, the most significant action government can take is that of depriving a person of his or her freedom.

This loss of freedom makes the stakes in any criminal proceeding of great importance to the accused. That is why fairness is critical to our system of criminal justice.

Camino a casa durante el tiempo de Cuaresma

Bajo el libro del evangelio por Obispo Robert C. Morlino

Esta columna está dirigida a los fieles de la Diócesis de Madison. Cualquier circulación más amplia transgrede la intención del Obispo.

Queridos amigos:

En primer lugar, permítanme agradecerles muy sinceramente por recordarme en sus oraciones durante mis vacaciones. Fueron días especiales para mí de amistad, especialmente con el Señor, y también de necesario descanso y recreo. He disfrutado esta temporada de mucha vida. Estoy seguro que en gran parte se debió a sus oraciones y, por supuesto, los recordé a todos ustedes en cada día.

Mientras me pongo al corriente, permítanme por favor compartir con ustedes, brevemente, mis pensamientos sobre la Cuaresma de este año que ya está cerca. Hubo recientemente un ataque de tiburón que terminó con la muerte de una persona. Uno de los expertos en tiburones que fue consultado dijo, al final de todo, lo siguiente: el océano es el hábitat natural de los tiburones y de otras criaturas marinas: no es el hábitat natural de los seres humanos y por lo tanto ingresar en él siempre conlleva cierto riesgo.
