3rd Sunday in Lent 3/8/2026 Give Me a Drink

Today’s Gospel reminds us of God’s gentle and surprising invitation to serve him through others. Jesus invites the woman into an act of service; a simple act and a surprising invitation. She hears the invitation “give me a drink” in confusion and doubt. Jesus is offering the invitation to share in the gift of life, “give me a drink.” How often do we hear this same invitation, In different words, but the same invitation from a spouse, a child, a parent, or anyone. Can you, give me a drink? Our answer, we pray will be yes and not only yes, it will be the sharing of the good news of life, love and peace.
