Introduction
by the Celebrant
A. Throw No
Stones
Have you ever had
the experience of hurting someone very much but that the offended person
forgave you, perhaps with difficulty, and accepted your apology, and that was
the end? Do you remember how relieved you felt, as if you were a new person?
That is how God keeps forgiving us: he makes us new every time again. Do we
live as forgiven, new people? Do we make others new by our pardon? Let us
encounter again in this Eucharist our patient, forgiving Lord Jesus.
Lent 5 C - Woman Caught in Adultery

Michel de Verteuil
General Comments
There are three people in today’s passage:
• the woman;
• the group called “scribes and Pharisees”;
• Jesus.
As always, in your meditation you must let yourself enter the story from the viewpoint of one of the three.
•The woman was guilty of a sexual sin, but her story evokes any experience of having done something shameful in a moment of great vulnerability.
