Getting ready for Mass on the First Sunday of Lent



Jesus Tempted, image by Chris Cook
Been so busy this week in the parish and on my blog that I almost completely forgot to post the scriptures for this weekend! (And no one reminded me!)

(But someone did alert me to a faulty link below - which I have corrected: thanks for the heads-up!)

You'll find the scripture texts here, along with background material on the readings. This is a rich field from which the preacher can harvest his homily: naked people in a gared; Paul at his theological best; and Jesus going one-on-one with the devil in the desert!

Got kids? Check out the Sadlier site here for helping kids prepare to hear these scriptures.

Perhaps your own Lenten program will include preparing for Sunday worship by studying the scriptures for Mass ahead of time.
