Easter is a reminder for us all to be the leaven in society.

It seems that as a people, we are obsessed with winning.

Wednesday, February 18, is Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. During Lent we make extra efforts to follow Jesus as we remember the days leading up to his crucifixion and death. There are many ways to do this, but there are three special ways we do this.

You will discover these three special ways you can celebrate Lent.

The rhythms of the Church year provide catechetical opportunities.
