LENT is an invitation. For 40 days, we are invited to give up selfishness and to take on compassion. We are invited to confess our brokenness, so that Christ might rise up in us and through us to stitch the world back together again. Lent invites us to fast from the culture the way it has always been, and to feast on God’s amazing grace that is pulling love out of violence, hope out of despair, and life right out of death. Lent is an invitation, and we are invited to journey together through these 40 days, confessing our brokenness, singing about God’s love for all, and preparing our hearts for God’s springtime that is breaking forth even now.
What might we be if only we tried? What might we become if only we'd listen?
(Amanda Gorman)
Only the person who has experienced it can believe what the love of Jesus Christ really is.
(Bernard of Clairvaux)
