Lenten disciplines of prayer, fasting and almsgiving

During this Lenten season here are some suggestions about how to participate:

  • ŸThere will be daily devotional prayer books available for you to take the first Sunday of Lent as well to help guide your prayer during Lent.  Check out one of these “Little Black Books” in the back of the church.
  • ŸThe Keys of Compassion - you  will receive a “key” with a specific food item on it and are asked to bring that food item to Mass as many times as you are able during Lent.  The offerings will be brought forward during the offertory procession and taken to a local food bank.
