During our Lenten pilgrimage of faith and hope, “the Church, our mother, and teacher, invites us to open our hearts to God’s grace so that we can celebrate with great joy the paschal victory of Christ the Lord over sin and death.”
In his letter at the beginning of this Jubilee Year Lent, Pope Francis urged us to walk as “Pilgrims of Hope,” not as isolated individuals but as brothers and sisters, companions who welcome and support each other. He called us to live in hope and to accept the call to conversion: “a call to hope, to trust in God and his great promise of eternal life.
We are halfway through Lent 2025. There is still time to accept our call to conversion and to prepare “to celebrate with great joy the paschal victory of Christ the Lord over sin and death.”
