A LENTEN JOURNEY
On Wednesday February 17th, 2010 the Church begins our annual Lenten
Journey. The journey begins with the distribution of Ashes to remind
us of our mortality and of our need for continued conversion. When the
ashes are placed on our foreheads the words: “Remember that you are
dust and unto dust you shall return”, or “Turn away from sin and
receive the Gospel.” are said. Both of these statements remind us of
the fact that we do not have here on earth a lasting home. Our true
home is in heaven and in the meantime we are challenged to form our
minds and hearts more closely to God’s plan for our lives. God’s plan
invites us to become people of hope, healing and peace to all our
sisters and brothers who will pass though our lives: to bring good
news to the poor, to bring liberty to captives, to bring sight to the
blind, and to proclaim a year of favour before the Lord. We can
accomplish this goal by daily striving to enable every person who
touches our lives to greater appreciate their dignity as sons and
daughters of God and to call forth that great gift of life which is
within them. During the Lenten Season we will read in the Scriptures
the story of Jesus’ journey to the house of His Father. We will be
invited to reflect on the challenges he faced as he taught his
disciples and those who would listen to his words. These were by no
means easy invitations to embrace, but the promise of eternal life
would be the reward for faithfulness. During the Season of Lent we
will have the following opportunities to journey with Jesus as we walk
with him to the glory of Easter.
