Today, may be one of the hardest days to be Catholic. Here we are, 5 days into Lent and going
through withdrawals from the things we’ve given up, and, to make matters worse, we all had
to wake up an hour earlier, due to the time change. Maybe this explains why the 11:30 mass
is so popular today!
The truth is, Lent can be an arduous season. It’s a time when we challenge ourselves to be
better Christians through a process of 1) detachment from worldly comforts and 2)
attachment to God and the building of His kingdom.
