Ash Wednesday as Gateway to Lent

“The Spirit immediately sent Jesus into the desert and he remained there for forty days, and  was put to the test.” Mark 1:12-13 

Lent offers us a time to go into the desert with Jesus, evaluate our commitment to prayer, giving, and reconciliation, and set a path toward a deeper closeness with God.

At this Ash Wednesday program, participants will be using the Bona Opera (Good Works) to reflect on their lives and choose several acts of good works, prayer, penance, or fasting that will prepare for Holy Week and the Easter celebration. The time will conclude with a presentation of the individual Bona Operas and the Receiving of the Ashes. 

Wednesday, March 5
3:00 – 4:30 p.m.  EST

Cost: Free
Participants will be invited to join the Sisters for evening prayer at 5:00 p.m.
