500 CLUB
As you know, we have stopped hosting bingo at the
parish center and are in need of a way to make up for
this lost income. Our Parish is very excited to an-
nounce the 500 Club! Hopefully you have been
hearing the buzz at Mass and wondering how to get
involved. Here's how the 500 Club works:
Only 500 tickets will be sold at $50 each.
Each ticket contains two numbers. (from 000 to 999)
Each week on Saturday, for 51 weeks, there will be
two winning numbers equal to the Pa state lottery,
afternoon and evening numbers. The afternoon win-
ner will receive $50 and the evening winner receives
$100.
On the 51st week, the afternoon winner receives
$1,000 and the evening winner $1,500.
The club will begin once all tickets are sold, so
please buy yours ASAP!
The winner will be promptly notified (by the ticket
seller) and announced on olcchurch.org.
How can you help?
Our parish is looking for 50 volunteers to each sell
10 tickets. (tickets cost $50 each)
Don't think you can sell 10 tickets? Consider buying
a ticket for yourself! Just contact one of the parish-
ioners listed below.
Once all 500 tickets are sold, our church will have
made a $15,000 profit in just a matter of weeks!!
To sign up to be a seller or purchase tickets, please
contact John Przychodzien 717-715-6511, Darren
Hodorovich 484-350-8398, Jen Kerstetter 610-291-
8273, or the rectory 610-857-3510.
Please pray for the soul of Rosemarie Daleandro
and for the souls of all the departed. May they rest
in peace in the kingdom of God.

David's Drive 831 is a non-profit 501 (c-3) public
charity committed to improving the quality of life for
hospitalized and homeless veterans and people in
need in the community.
David's Drive 831 (DD831) was created in memory
of David Turner Jr. who died suddenly at the age of
20 of a suspected heart arrhythmia.
David had worked at the Coatesville VA Medical
Center and had a tremendous respect for the veterans
he served; many were homeless, in early recovery,
and came to the hospital without essentials.
David had a vision to provide these veterans with the
items they need.
Each year David’s Drive takes 50 Veterans Bowling
to Castle Bowling in Downingtown. Sometimes this
is the only time the Veterans get out of the Medical
Center. They go bowling, enjoy some delicious
pizza and other Bowling Alley food, and have a fun
day out. But we need your help!!
Could you please consider sponsoring a Veteran??
Cost is $25/Veteran to send them that day.
We would like to cover all 50 of the Veterans, so we
really need your help!!
If you are able to Sponsor a Veteran, please fill out a
form, located in the back of the church and return it
to Janice Dagney by the next PREP/LTJV/One8 or
ELC day that you are able.
MAY THE STRENGTH OF GOD
PILOT US,
MAY THE WISDOM OF GOD
INSTRUCT US.
MAY THE HAND OF GOD
PROTECT US.
MAY THE WORD OF GOD
DIRECT US.

Sunday, March 13, 2016-Fifth Sunday of Lent Reflection by Rev. Leonard N. Peterson
This very Sunday marks the third anniversary of Pope Francis’ election in 2013. How appropriate that amid
the Year of Mercy our Holy Father has proclaimed, today’s Lenten gospel should tell us of an unforgettable
act of Jesus’ mercy on a terrified unnamed woman.
It certainly is obvious that mercy is one of those qualities in a person that is best shown by action rather than
by words. Do you remember Eliza Doolittle’s demand in the musical hit “My Fair Lady” when she sings to her
boyfriend after hundreds of speech lessons: “Don’t talk of love: show me!?” That’s what we all look for, from
other people and even from God.
As a matter of fact, the whole ensemble of today’s Scripture selections declare God’s love for us manifest in
His actions. Isaiah predicts that Yahweh will bring about a new exodus for His people, one not involving just
freedom from Egyptian slavery but from unending slavery to sin. Paul writes to the Philippians that an inti-
mate knowledge of Christ and acceptance of His ways is the best route to salvation.
Then comes the powerful centerpiece story from John about the woman caught in adultery. Note how the men
gloat from their position of self-proclaimed superiority, as if adultery were a solitary sin! How they humiliate
the terrified creature facing a brutal death by forcing her to stand there shivering before Jesus! Never doubt
that she represents all of us, not necessarily with her particular sin, but with a variety of sins that cry out from
our consciences for God’s mercy.
We watch the God-Man bend down to scribble in the ground, dismissing the shouts of the woman’s accusers.
Then, standing up to His full height, Jesus tells them who should begin the stone-throwing. There are no tak-
ers. The men are silenced.
When He speaks to the woman “Has no one condemned you?” “No one, sir.” “Then neither do I- but from now
on do not sin any more.” “From now on.” In those three words I hear a call for all of us, no matter what we’ve
done against God’s will, to make a new beginning. Time is moving on. Lent is soon ending and our salvation
is pending.
Strengthened by the Holy Eucharist, we need not fear. “From now on” we can be the person God had in mind
when He created us and He will help. So we pray: “Jesus, Son of God have mercy on Your people, for Your
people is us.”
First Reading: Isaiah 43:16-21
The prophet predicts a new exodus in which Yahweh will offer a better kind of freedom than simple release
from Egypt. It will be freedom from a more spiritual slavery to sin.
Second Reading: Philippians 3:8-14
For Paul, true freedom is rooted in intimate knowledge of Jesus and acceptance of His way. The Law, while
being “holy, just and good” is a poorer way to righteousness because it is not a remedy for sin.
Gospel: John 8:1-11
Once again, Jesus’ opponents set a trap for Him: obey the Mosaic law or the Roman one. Jesus’ mercy in-
volves a mandate to the accused woman about not repeating her sin in the future.
