Lent is coming to a rapid close - we are only 8 days away from the Triduum, 10 days away from Easter! I know I have had to wake myself up a few times this Lent - the threat of falling spiritually asleep this season has been strong! But God knows what we need when we need it and will help us grow no matter what Lent has looked like for us.
As Lent comes to a close, join us, especially for Holy Week, as we walk the Way of the Cross with Christ into His Resurrection. Tonight, join us at the Shroud of Turin presentation in Parish Hall at 7pm, sponsored by the Knights of Columbus!
Jacopo Tintoretto, The Ascent to Calvary (detail)
