Resources for Lent 2017

There are numerous  resources providing opportunities to make the most of the coming six weeks of Lent.

During this time of reflection, prayer and penance we are invited to review God’s call to care for Earth, our Common Home (LS1) and to reconsider the Gospel call to love God and share our lives and resources with our brothers and sisters, especially those most in need.

Brigidine Sisters, together with our associates and colleagues in ministry invite you to explore the following resources for prayer, reflection and action during Lent 2017.

May this time draw us closer to Jesus, our Brother and our inspiration and lead us to follow his way more closely.
