"Lent is a sacred season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving, preparing the faithful for the celebration of the Lord’s Resurrection at Easter. During these forty days, the Church calls us to ongoing conversion of heart, renewed reliance on God’s mercy, and deeper participation in the Paschal Mystery, following the biblical tradition of forty days of preparation."
La Cuaresma es una temporada sagrada de oración, ayuno y limosna, que prepara a los fieles para la celebración de la Resurrección del Señor en Pascua. Durante estos cuarenta días, la Iglesia nos llama a la conversión continua del corazón, a una renovada confianza en la misericordia de Dios y a una participación más profunda en el Misterio Pascual, siguiendo la tradición bíblica de cuarenta días de preparación.
Join us as we discuss the five points of the kerygma and how they are an essential part of our discipleship journey. Our presenter will be Deacon Ralph Poyo of New Evangelization Ministries. Cost is $20 per person. The day will include lunch and an opportunity for Mass.
As the diocese prepares for a period of Sede Vacante, we offer these resources for parishes and schools to enrich this time of prayerful anticipation for the appointment of a new Bishop.
