| As we enter the second week of Lent, we continue our journey of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. This week invites us to deepen our commitment to spiritual renewal and draw closer to God. The Gospel readings remind us of God’s mercy and call to transformation. Just as Jesus led His disciples to the mountaintop in the Transfiguration, He invites us to seek His light in our daily lives. Lent is a time to surrender our burdens, reflect on our faith, and embrace the love and grace that God freely offers. Let us use this time to open our hearts to Him—through acts of kindness, moments of silence, and a renewed dedication to our spiritual growth. May this week bring us deeper into the hope and promise of Christ’s resurrection. Blessings on your Lenten journey! Peace, Pastor Heather |
