Third Sunday of Lent - Woman at the well



Third Sunday of Lent
March 7 & 8
On this Third Sunday of Lent we hear the story of the Samaritan woman looking into the well and seeing there her image, and the image of Jesus. In the depths of the well of her life, she finds the presence, love and forgiveness of Christ.

Sometimes it is important for us to go to the depths of our well, the depths of our soul, because it is there that we will find God.  It is there that God will impact us with love, pain, death, decision, joy.  It is in the depths of our well that we find the salvation God has to offer.  Now we must seek that great gift of reconciliation that comes from God.

Pope Francis says – “there is no sin or crime of any kind that can erase from the mind or heart of God even one of the children he has created”.
