A Mid-Lent Word of Encouragement

 

We’re over halfway through Lent already!

“If I should fall even a thousand times a day, a thousand times, with peaceful repentance, I will say immediately, Nunc Coepi [Now I begin].”

- Venerable Bruno Lanteri

Perhaps you feel as if your Lent hasn’t gone as well as you would have liked - resolutions poorly kept, bad habits refusing to be broken, life circumstances changing your plans, etc.

However, this quote from Ven. Bruno Lanteri can serve as a reminder that, as long as we’re alive, it’s never too late to begin again! The good Lord is eager to meet you right where you are, and it’s in our moments of weakness when His power can shine forth most vividly in our lives.

We’re praying that the last two weeks of your Lent are filled with renewed graces and joy as we approach the Paschal Triduum!
