In this special Scrutiny Mass for the Third Sunday of Lent, Fr. Paul Moret reflects on Jesus’ profound encounter with the Samaritan woman at the well. Drawing out the rich spiritual symbolism of water, worship, and truth, he explores how this Gospel reading reveals our deepest longing—not merely for physical sustenance, but for authentic relationship with God. With historical insight into the woman’s situation and theological reflection on Christ’s thirst for our conversion, Fr. Paul speaks directly to the Elect preparing for baptism and all the faithful journeying through Lent, reminding us that only the living water of Christ can truly satisfy the soul.
