Lent is a “joyful season of the year” that challenges us

to renew our faith, hope and love for Our Lord.

Listen to His voice of compassion, forgiveness and love

in all your daily experiences . . .

(if you don’t hear Him, you are not listening hard enough;

if you don’t see Him, you are not looking hard enough;

if you don’t feel Him, you are not attentive enough . . .

So, listen more, look more and love more intently this Lent! God loves you as you are.)
