Third Sunday in Lent

We see Jesus today in open conflict with Satan and his works. So also during Lent, which is a time when the struggle against the old man is more intense, we should "live as children of the light," performing actions good, just, and true.

Today was the warmest and sunniest day here yet this spring! This afternoon I drove Dr. Waldstein to the train station in Amstetten (about 50 minutes away). The drive took us through the most beautiful part of Austria (according to him, a native). About 15 minutes before Amstetten the road ran right up to the edge of a long ridge overlooking valley after valley, with little farms dotting the landscape. It was pretty impressive.

Then this evening we had some friends over for dinner, which was great fun of course, and then we introduced them to Brian Regan. Jessica actually was already familiar with his comedy from her days at Ave Maria, but the others were new to it and about fell over laughing. Well, that's about all the news from here today I guess, so take luck!
