The Samaritan Woman at the Well
Introduction to the Liturgy of the Day
Water plays a pivotal role in today’s liturgy. In the Liturgy of the Word, we hear Moses bring forth water in the desert when the Chosen People feared dying of thirst. In the Gospel, Jesus reveals himself as the source of living water, telling the woman at the well that whoever drinks of this water will never thirst again.
Today we also celebrate the first scrutiny rite with those who are preparing for baptism, where they will receive the water of new life. Whether we have been baptized for many years or are preparing for baptism in just a few weeks, we thirst for the life- giving water that only our Lord, “the one called the Christ,” can provide.

Stations of the Cross
Friday's during Lent.
As you come to enjoy your delicious Fish Fry every Friday evening don’t forget that Jesus is waiting for you too in the stations of the cross.
With hearts turned toward the Lord and mindful of the needs of our world, we warmly invite you to gather with us for the prayer of the Stations of the Cross.
As we walk spiritually with Jesus on His journey to Calvary, we honor His great love poured out for us. In meditating on His Passion, we find strength for our own crosses, healing for our wounds, and hope for our future. This sacred devotion unites us more deeply to Christ and to one another.
In a special way, we will offer this time of prayer for peace in our world, in our nation, and in our homes. We will also pray for the grace to preserve and strengthen the unity of our Saint Mildred community, that we may remain rooted in compassion, forgiveness, and steadfast faith.
Come and bring your intentions, your concerns, and your gratitude. Let us stand together at the foot of the Cross, trusting that through Christ’s sacrifice, love triumphs over division and peace overcomes fear.”
