Lent 2024 Information
In summarizing faithfulness, Jesus gives us two commandments – to love God and to love our neighbor as ourselves. Tending to our faith this season of Lent, we will turn our attention outwards to see, listen to, and reflect on the stories of our neighbor, particularly in the immigrant community, as we seek to love more deeply.
