Father O’Connor’s Homily for March 9, 2014
First Sunday of Lent – A Genesis 2:7-9, 3:1-7 Romans 5:12-19 Matthew 4:1-11
(Matthew Kelly, The  Four Signs of a Dynamic Catholic, pages 5-37)
The Gospel for the First Sunday of Lent is about Jesus  spending forty days and forty nights in the desert, fasting and praying –  really making a long retreat.  And during  that time, Satan, the devil, comes and presents Jesus with three temptations.  And Jesus three times says “no” to sin and  “yes” to His Heavenly Father’s will.  You and I are now in the forty days of Lent – a time for  prayer, for penance, for charitable works – and we are making a kind of retreat  together.  We use this time to say “no”  to temptation and sin, and to say “yes” to God and God’s will for us. I am  sure that you have all begun your plans for Lent this year, but I thought I  would give you another suggestion that really won’t get in the way of what you  are already doing.  In fact it can enrich  your Lent beyond your imagining.And  here it is: Say “yes” to some good spiritual  reading.  Only 1% of Catholics in  America have read a good Catholic book in the last twelve months.  Are you in that 1%?To  make your answer easier, we are putting a great Catholic book in your hands  today:  The Four Signs of a Dynamic Catholic by Matthew Kelly.  Members of our Parish Pastoral Council have  been reading it.  And they are so excited  about this book that they wanted you to have a copy to take home with you on  this First Sunday of Lent -- and free of charge!And  what are the four signs of a dynamic Catholic?   Prayer, Study, Generosity and Evangelization.  [And don’t let those words scare you.  They will come to be good, close friends!]For  the six Sundays of Lent, I will be basing my homilies on the Scriptures and on a  section of this book.  And the page  references for each week are listed in this weekend’s bulletin.  It is all broken down, asking you to read  about 30-35 pages each week – or 4-5 pages each day.  Can we do this?  Yes or yes? Let  me tell you a bit about what is in store for us in The Prologue and Chapter  One:  entitled “Incredible Possibilities”  [and found in pages 5-37].
The 80/20 Study
And I will let Matthew Kelly tell you in his  own words: Several years ago I  was having dinner with a group of priests in Minnesota before an event. I was  the only non-cleric at the table, and some of the priests started talking about  different things that were happening in their parishes. One of the priests was  very young, and he was lamenting about how few people were actively involved at  his parish. My mind was  star
