"Lent is a time when we relive the Passion of Christ. Let it not be just a time when our feelings are roused, but let it be a change that comes through cooperation with God's grace in real sacrifices of self" (Mother Teresa of Calcutta).
Portrait of a Lenten Journey
the atmosphere which fills the heart
with His Presence
Fasting . . .
the "meal" prepared daily
for others
through sacrifice and charity
Almsgiving . . .
the gifts which reach
into one's heart
and are poured out for needy souls
Penance . . .
the Lenten desert road
that silently leads one
to purity of heart
and union
with Our Crucified and Risen Lord Jesus.
