Lent is a season of soul-searching and repentance. It is a season for reflection and taking stock. Lent originated in the very earliest days of the Church as a preparatory time for Easter, when the faithful rededicated themselves and when converts were instructed in the faith and prepared for baptism. By observing the forty days of Lent, the individual Christian imitates Jesus’ withdrawal into the wilderness for forty days.
As we continue to observe the Lenten Season we encourage our children to attend mass on Sundays. This past Sunday we had invited all our children and in particular those involve in any form of sporting activities at our school. The response from the children was overwhelming.
