Lent begins this Wednesday, March 2nd. During the season of Lent the universal Church enters into a time of more intense conversion of heart to the Lord through prayer, fasting and works of charity. Please take some time to reflect on how you might incorporate these three spiritual disciplines into your Lenten journey this year. To assist you in your Lenten observance I suggest you incorporate the devotional helps listed below ~ Fr. David
Lenten Flyer: Each week there will be an attachment to the bulletin offering reflections and tips on how to make your Lenten Journey more meaningful.
Daily Mass: In addition to the weekend, please consider coming to a weekday Mass each week of Lent. FYI: there will be a Tuesday 5:15pm Mass in Manito added to the schedule.
Stations of the Cross: This beautiful meditation on the Passion of our Lord will be prayed after the Mass on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday each week of Lent.
Rosary Novena: Please consider praying the 54 Day Rosary Novena (beginning on Ash Wednesday) for Catholics in both Mason and Fulton Counties to come back to Mass.
Soup & Reflection: There will be an evening of reflection at Immaculate Conception parish hall including a Lenten meal, talk and recitation of the holy rosary.
The Chosen Series: On Sundays, March 20, 27, and April 3, episodes of Season 1 of “The Chosen” will be shown at Immaculate Conception hall followed by a brief discussion.
