This year, we support Christians in the Holy Land, the “living stones” whose population has fallen to less than 2% in the place where Christianity began. Today, only one Catholic school, Holy Family School, remains in Gaza. The Cleveland Holy Land Consortium supports this school. Our Bishop Nelson has encouraged a local effort to stand with the Christians of Gaza at Holy Family School and Parish. Help support families whose communities are largely cut off from the rest of the world. The need is urgent! Offering envelopes are available at the doors of the church for you to use to turn your personal Lenten sacrifices into contributions which will help Catholic children in Gaza make their way to a brighter day. Return Offerings on HOLY THURSDAY or EASTER SUNDAY. For more information contact: Sir Jeffery Abood, jabood@att.net 330-612-7968.

Washing of the Feet at Holy Thursday Liturgy
by Sharon Jesse
Prayer, fasting and peaceful vigils during Lent help save the lives of the most vulnerable among us.
See http://40daysforlife.com for details and stories. Prayer cards are available at the church doors.
The services of the Easter Triduum (translated, “three days”) at St. Malachi Parish (Cleveland) in 2016 are scheduled as follows:
The summit of the Liturgical Year is the Easter Triduum—from the evening of Holy Thursday to the evening of Easter Sunday. Though chronologically three days, they are liturgically one day unfolding for us the unity of Christ’s Paschal Mystery.
The single celebration of the Triduum marks the end of the Lenten season, and leads to the Mass of the Resurrection of the Lord at the Easter Vigil.
We hope that you can join us for part of all of this sacred celebration at St. Malachi. (Our patron saint is St. Malachy; note that our parish name is spelled differently.)
In keeping with our St. Malachi tradition, there is no Coffee Hour on March 20, 2016, Palm Sunday after either Mass. The church will be open for Eucharistic adoration between masses. Fr. Tony and Fr. Jim O’Donnell will be available for the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession).

Easter Triduum Liturgical Ministers are needed for Thursday, Friday and Saturday, March 24 – 26, 2016.
Lectors, Eucharistic ministers, servers, and ushers are needed for the Holy Thursday (7:30PM), Good Friday (3PM) and Holy Saturday (8:30PM) services.
Sign-up sheets are in the sacristy.
Please consider serving to help with the most sacred time of our liturgical year.

Your financial contribution will make a difference in the lives of our refugee brothers and sisters in the Middle East. Most refugees have had to flee their homes and livelihoods with little more than the clothes on their backs. Here are some examples of how your donation can make a difference in the lives of refugee families in Jordan. (Examples are for families of 5)
For additional information and details about the refugee crisis in Europe, see this Fact Sheet.
