Begin your Lenten preparation today, and Lent will be a more spiritually rewarding season for you.

3 Suggestions to Grow Spiritually During Lent

1. Spend time in silent prayer

2. Reflect on the gift of Jesus in the Eucharist

3. Let the joy of humility be the foundation of your Lent

 

1. St. Jane Frances de Chantal said, “In prayer, more is accomplished by listening than by talking.”

“Be still and know that I am God.”  (Psalm 46:10)

2. Thomas Merton said, “We will never fully appreciate the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist until we see the intimate connection that exists between the mystery of the Holy Eucharist and the mystery of the Church, the Body of Christ.”

3. Fr. Lewis Fiorelli, O.S.F.S. wrote, “ Humility recognizes the supremacy of God and thus of the divine will in our lives, while gentleness embodies our deep respect, even reverence, for the dignity and goodness of every person as made in God’s holy image.”

May your Lenten spiritual exercises bring you an Easter Season that deepens your love and trust in Jesus Christ, true God, true Man.

May God Be Praised!
