REFLECTION
‘Repent and believe in the Gospel. Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return’
The journey you are about to make is dangerous, for if you truly follow the Lord into the desert, you will never be the same. IF you enter into this time with Him from the heart, you will emerge with a heart that has been changed… Jesus will be etched into the crevices of your being!’ (Restore; Sr. Miriam James)
PRAYER
Jesus, help me as I begin this journey with you.
Give me an open heart, a willing spirit, and the courage to keep going, no matter what.
Amen
RECONCILIATION
Penitential Services and opportunities for Confession will be offered throughout the season of Lent.
