It's the 3rd Sunday of Lent and here in Colorado the Bishops have suspended the public celebration of the Mass as an act of charity in order to stem the spread of the Corona virus.  The readings today could not be better suited for helping us to enter into this Desert of Fasting from the Sacraments - in anticipation of the coming of Easter.  Take a moment and reflect in your own life - where has a desert been created by sin - it is to this place that Christ wants to come and give you the gift of new life!
