To all our visitors…
Bishop John R. Gaydos, the clergy and the faithful of the Diocese of Jefferson City welcome you and hope that your time in
our Mother Church may be an opportunity to share our faith
and joy in Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Our parish was formed in 1959 and was elevated to the title of
Cathedral in 1968 and dedicated in 1974. Please enjoy the beauty of this spacious building dedicated to the Glory of God and
the memory of Saint Joseph, the Husband of Mary. It was built
for the inspiration of all who enter. Free tour booklets are available.
All visitors who are not of the Roman Catholic faith are most
welcome to join us in prayer and worship, but not to receive Holy Communion. Reception of Holy Communion is a sign of full
unity and membership in the Catholic community. Together let
us all pray for the unity of all believers.
If you desire to become a member of the Roman Catholic
Church or to become a member of the Cathedral Parish, please
call the parish office at 573-635-7991.
All contributions to the Cathedral ministries and maintenance
are sincerely appreciated. Please remember this Cathedral parish
in your Will, gifts and estate plans to support our parish’s ongoing mission.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
WELCOME to all who gather in our Cathedral Church for: The
First Sunday of Lent and the Rite of Election.
MASSES: Monday through Friday at 6:30 a.m. and 8:00 a.m.
in the Cathedral proper.
WEEK OF PRAYER: We ask each member of our Cathedral
parish to pray for the members of one of the parishes or missions in our diocese this week. As a Cathedral Church, all our
parishes are linked to us and we wish to deepen the spiritual
bond with them. Therefore, we will pray this week for St.
Brendan, Mexico.
HOLY SILENCE: As is our custom during Lent, all Masses
will conclude without a hymn. We will depart in silence, recalling the suffering of Jesus on the cross for us as sinners.

Friday of Lent at 2:30 p.m., and at 6:00 p.m. in the Cathedral.
On Good Friday, the Stations of the Cross will be at 3:00 p.m.,
followed by Confessions from 3:30 until 5:00 p.m.
WEEK OF PRAYER FOR CONSECRATED LIFE: Pope
Francis has asked us to remember in prayer, all members of
communities of Male and Female Religious. This week we

increase in vocations for, the Central Dominican Province
of St. Albert the Great.

Roger and Donald Samson. May they have eternal rest in their

PALM SUNDAY, March 29, CATHEDRAL
Wednesday, March 31
FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT THOUGHT
Immaculate Conception
2:00 p.m.
7:00 p.m.
CHRISM MASS: Bishop John R. Gaydos invites you to attend
our annual Chrism Mass, Thursday, March 26, 5:30 p.m. This
Liturgy unites the Diocese in recalling the gifts of the Holy
Priesthood and the Most Holy Eucharist. The Oil of the Sick
and the Oil of the Catechumens are blessed and the Sacred
Chrism is consecrated at this time. These Holy Oils impact the
lives of those who are preparing to enter into the Church, those
who are ill, and all preparing for Confirmation and Holy Orders.
On this Sunday we recall the twofold nature of this time. For
catechumens, designated this week as the Elect, Lent is a time of
final preparation for Baptism. For those of us already baptized, it
is a time of repentance and renewal through the practices of
prayer, fasting and almsgiving. For all of us, baptized and unbaptized alike, Lent is about our baptismal covenant with God-the
promises that we have made and will make, rejecting Satan and
professing our belief in God.
K of C LENTEN FISH FRIES: February 27, March 6 & 20,
4:30-7:00 p.m., Undercroft. Adults $9 Children 6-11: $5.
Our first two readings today are about God’s covenant with Noah. Mark’s Gospel recounts, in his typical brief fashion, Jesus’
sojourn in the desert and his announcement of the kingdom of
God. All we have to do is repent and believe in the gospel-the
good News. As we listen to these readings today, let us recall our
own baptismal covenant with God (or for the catechumens, the
one that you are about to make this Easter Vigil) and how we
ourselves are repenting and believing in the Good news of our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
HOLY THURSDAY: April 2, 7:00 p.m., Mass of the Lord’s
Supper, Cathedral. Adoration until Midnight.
GOOD FRIDAY: April 3, Stations of the Cross, 3:00 p.m..
Confessions, 3:30–5:00 p.m., Cathedral. Celebration of the
Lord’s Passion, 7:00 p.m., Cathedral.
MOVIE: The Passion of the Christ, will be shown in the Undercroft at 12:30 p.m. on Good Friday. Join us and watch this
powerful movie and then attend the Stations of the Cross in the
Cathedral at 3:00 p.m.
QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What ‘wild beasts’ do I find
myself among in these opening days of Lent? Who are some
‘ministering angels’ who bless my life?
HOLY SATURDAY: April 4, Confessions, 4:00-5:00 p.m.,
Cathedral. Easter Vigil, 8:00 p.m., Cathedral. No 5:30 p.m.

VITAE EVENT
MISSING CHRISTMAS TREE
During the last Resurrection Cemetery clean-up, a Christmas
tree that has great sentimental value to a parishioner was mistakenly taken from the cemetery shed. The tree is not worth much,

years. If you have this tree, they are happy to buy you another to
replace their special tree. Please return it to the cemetery, or call
the parish office at (573) 635-7991. Thank you!
