Work the Works of Mercy this Lent

Why is it so important to make the Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy a part of your Faith life, especially during Lent? Lent is a favorable season for opening the doors to all those in need and recognizing in them the face of Christ."-- Pope Fran-cis Lent is a time to devote to prayer, fasting, and giving alms. Giving of alms shares God's gifts with others, through the distribution of money, as well as the sharing of time and talents. As St. John Chrysostom reminds us: "Not to enable the poor to share in our goods is to steal from them and deprive them of life. The goods we possess are not ours, but theirs." (Catechism of the Catholic Church, no. 2446). There is no reason to fail the Exam

For Lent, let us not focus on a bad habit to quit; let’s focus on a good habit to start! Set aside a quiet time to pray for those without a voice. After all, in the beautiful words of St. Teresa of Avila . . . And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap a harvest if we do not lose heart. -Gal 6:9
