Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
March 2 is the beginning of the Lenten season - Ash Wednesday. As you pray, fast and give alms over the next 40 days, walk slowly, simplify, be present in the moment, and try not to multi-task. Take steps in your life that will help you encounter Christ, renew your relationship with Him and let Him mold you. When you fast, offer up your suffering for someone in need. Pope Francis has called us to fast and pray for those in the Ukraine on Ash Wednesday.
Please let us know how we can better serve you and your parish as we carry out our mission of evangelization to help parishes bring people to an encounter with Christ and a deeper appreciation of the Catholic faith, igniting a joyful witness of their faith to others. (contact us at Family@diocesepb.org)
May God's Mercy and Peace be with you,
Cathy, Deacon Louie, Beth, Liliana, Andy, Erika, Cindy and Rosario
Please share this email with anyone and everyone!
Together let us build, unite and grow our Church.
