Dear Parishioners,
Lent … what’s going to be different?
This week we begin the season of Lent with our celebration of Ash Wednesday. Are you ready? As you can see, we are offering MANY opportunities for people to come to Mass and receive ashes. Please take advantage and invite others to join. This is the most sacred season of our liturgical year and is an opportunity for all of us to grow closer to Christ. Please pay attention to next week’s bulletin, as we will be sharing our Lenten schedule of activities for you to grow in your relationship with Christ.
So what’s going to be different for you this Lent? As we move forward with the Renewal as a parish, this is a great time to renew our relationship and dedication to Jesus. Remember, faith is a choice and requires a commitment. Lent is the perfect time to ask ourselves, what is our commitment to our faith life and how is it visible to the world? All of us are called to share the joy of God’s love with others. If our parish wants a future, then all of us need to be committed and ask ourselves, what’s going to be different as we go forward? It begins with you!
Invite … share faith … share the reasons you follow Jesus …pray … fast and give alms! Now’s the perfect time to recommit. Let’s have a transforming and renewed Lent!
Keep smiling :)
Fr. Bryan
