Lenten Prayers and Reflections

As we go through our Lenten journey, it is a personal time as we encounter the mysterious of our faith.

I personally try to pray the Sorrowful Mysteries each morning. It is a time to contemplate and mediate on the journey our Lord Jesus Christ went through for our salvation.

Please find below the PDF for the Sorrowful Mysteries and The Stations of the Cross:

Personal aside:

It was through praying these two prayers that I encounter a strong and loving mother as she watched her son Jesus sacrifice himself for our salvation. She may not have understood what was happening, but her strength came from her trust on in God. As a mom, this resonated with me. I became a better mother.

Through praying The Stations of the Cross, I found Veronica reflected within me – for I saw myself there reaching out to wipe the blood of my beloved Jesus. So very often I give up the little pain I feel to Jesus. Veronica’s simple gesture is what we should do upon one another – empathy and caring for the disenfranchised.
