• Taunton Lenten Mission

  Sunday Mar 17, 2019 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM

  Taunton Lenten Mission
  March 17th-20th
  What Will Bring Me More Fully to Life This Lent? The very word "Lent" comes from the Anglo-Saxon lengthen, referring to the lengthening of the light. From this original meaning, confirmed in the movement from winter's darkness to spring's vitality, we are invited to move out of our own personal lethargy to vitality, from ashes to the paschal feast. Lent, in short, is about coming to life in new ways. It's about growth. If you approached your life in terms of a holistic spirituality, looking at your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being to see where things have fallen out of balance, grown wild and need some pruning or watering, you might ask yourself: What will bring me and others more fully to life this Lent?
  A four-evening Lenten Mission for the Taunton Deanery will take place at 7 p.m. from Sunday, March 17, through Wednesday, March 20, at two churches in the deanery. St. Ann Parish in Raynham will host the mission on Sunday and Monday (Mar. 17 and 18), St. Andrew the Apostle Parish on Tuesday and Wednesday (Mar. 19 and 20).

  Monday Mar 25, 2019 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM

  Solemnity of the Annunciation of the Lord
  Mass will be celebrated on Monday, March 25th at 8:00AM
  The feast of the Annunciation of the Lord celebrates the angel Gabriel’s appearance to the Virgin Mary, his announcement that the Blessed Virgin had been chosen to be the Mother of Our Lord, and Mary’s fiat — her willing acceptance of God’s holy plan as recorded in the Gospel of Luke (1:26-38)
  
  THE ANNUNCIATION OF THE LORD
  MARCH 25th – SOLEMNITY
  
  On this day the Church celebrates when the Archangel Gabriel requested Our Lady to be the
  Mother of God. Mary accepts and declares herself to be the handmaid of the Lord. The Annunciation is one of the three most ancient feasts of Our Lady. This feast has been known by many names over the years including: “the Feast of the Incarnation,” “the beginning of the Redemption,” “the Conception of Christ” and “the Announcing of the Christ.”
