Lent begins on Ash Wednesday and ends with the start of the Triduum, at the Mass of the Lord’s Supper on Holy Thursday. The entire Lenten Season is devoted to preparing for the great celebration of the Paschal Mystery at Easter.

Individually, the faithful are called to prepare through prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. As a parish, we emphasize the somber nature of this sacred season with starkness and simplicity in our liturgies and worship space. 

We invite you to enter into this holy and solemn season with your heart open to contemplate Jesus' suffering and death on the Cross so that it may be filled with joy upon the Resurrection of our Lord at Easter. 

Our parish is offering opportunities for prayer, formation, and service - including A Healing Night on March 14 and our Lenten Parish Mission Series, where we will contemplate the Call to Discipleship.
