Be Ambassadors for Christ
Today, Ash Wednesday, marks the time of the liturgical year to pause, reflect and strengthen our relationship with God. As Paul wrote to the Corinthians centuries ago, “we are ambassadors for God.”
We are happy to share some resources for your journey through Lent:

SSND North American Vocation Ministry Team
The North American Vocation Ministry Team members invite you to participate in their Online Lenten Retreat, to enter the simplicity of Lent and prepare your hearts for the Easter celebration of Christ’s passion, death, and resurrection. Daily reflections are based on the writings of Blessed Theresa Gerhardinger, foundress of the School Sisters of Notre Dame. Click for the Online Lenten Retreat. The reflections begin on Wednesday will be accessible one week at a time, a few days before the start of the week. Feel free to pray these reflections at your own pace.
