Lent begins with Ash Wednesday on February 17th and ends with the Easter Vigil on April 3rd. This beautiful season of the Church gives us a time to grow in our faith through an increase in Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving.
We will be offering some additional opportunities to grow in faith as a parish community. We hope you will consider joining us either in-person or virtually for one or more of these studies and devotions.
Stations of the Cross will be prayed on Fridays at 7:00pm in the Church. They will also be live-streamed to the parish Facebook site.
What: Fr. Kevin will offer a weekly study of the Scriptures. During Lent we will explore the main characters, stories and teachings of the Old Testament. This Study will continue through Easter, where we will explore the New Testament in the same way.
When: Sundays at 2:00pm in the Church.
