The Season of Lent is a time of renewal. We long to grow closer to Christ, as we look forward to the celebration of the Paschal Mystery. When we sin, we harm our relationship with God and His Church. That is why the sacrament of reconciliation is such a wonderful gift to experience during Lent. Through the sacrament, we experience God's mercy, our sins are forgiven, and we are healed.
Bishop Deeley will be joining us on Thursday, April 11 at Sacred Hearts to hear confessions. Parish of the Holy Eucharist Light Is On Schedule for Lent 2019
