Whatever God says he will do, he does. He heals us. All we need to do is ask.
If you wish, you can make me clean, is what the leper told Jesus.
Jesus did wish it, and he wishes the same for all of us.

FEBRUARY THEME FOR
WORLD MEETING OF FAMILIES
Two Become One: We are not made to be alone.
Human beings need and complete each other. Friendship and community satisfy that longing with bonds of
common interest and love. Marriage is a uniquely
intimate form of friendship that calls a man and a
woman to love each other in the manner of God’s covenant. Marriage is a Sacrament. Married love is fruitful and offered without reservation. This love is in the
image of Jesus’ faithfulness to the Church.

ARCHDIOCESE OF PHILADELPHIA TO
KICK OFF 40TH ANNIVERSARY OF
CATHOLIC RELIEF SERVICES’
RICE BOWL
The local Church supports a nationwide effort to alleviate poverty and hunger through prayer, fasting, and
alms giving. The Archdiocese of Philadelphia marks
the beginning of its 40th consecutive year participating in Catholic Relief Services’ Rice Bowl, a nationwide Lenten faith-in-action program for families and
faith communities.
Parishioners in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia donated over $400,000 to CRS Rice Bowl during Lent
2014. Of that amount, $101,736 remained in the
Archdiocese of Philadelphia and helped the Office for
Nutritional Development Services fight hunger in the
region. The remainder was distributed to Catholic
Relief Services to combat hunger and see to other
basic human needs overseas. Catholic Relief Services
is the official international humanitarian agency of the
Catholic community in the United States.
Thank you to all of our parishioners here at Our Lady
of Fatima. You have always been most generous to
this important Lenten collection.
