3 Reasons to Celebrate Lent
One. “We are people who, many times, have done wrong and need to repent; thus the need to make a good confession.”
Two. “We are people who many times get carried away with selfishness and so need to start thinking of others; thus the need for alms.”
Three. “We are people who often lose sight of purpose for which we were created by God. We need, therefore, to recover our sight. Thus the need for prayer.”
The need for confession . . . The need to give . . . The need for prayer . . . These are 3 reasons to participate in Lent.
