It’s that time of year again! The season of giving up desert and meat on Fridays. But don’t we all desire to do something more for Lent?
What actually is Lent? And why do Catholics do what they do this time each year? During this new event we will aim to equip ourselves with the tools to understand and practice the pillars of Lent: prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.
We will explore what it is we need to have a good Lenten season and will reflect on our goals for our spiritual life and development and we enter the desert side-by-side with Christ.
This is an in-person event.
