Lent is a time for remembering and reflecting… Lent is the time to start breathing again… It’s a time of compassion.

Pope Francis

Train Your Heart for Lent

Lent is not meant to be rushed. Like a marathon, it is a steady journey of prayer, discipline, perseverance, and grace. One day, one step at a time.

To accompany you on this sacred journey, Fr. Peter Grover, OMV has written 40 Short Lenten Reflections: A Journal to Get You to Easter. This brief, daily booklet offers practical reflections rooted in Scripture, everyday life, and the spiritual wisdom gained from long-distance running. Each reflection is designed to help you stay focused, faithful, and encouraged as you move from Ash Wednesday to the joy of Easter.

40 Short Lenten Reflections is available in paperback through Amazon and as a downloadable digital edition for easy daily prayer.

As you review the Mass schedule below, we invite you to consider pairing your participation in the Eucharist with these daily reflections, allowing Christ to strengthen you at every stage of the Lenten journey.
