This year the Season of Lent begins on February 14th (Ash Wednesday). It is the time of year when our Catholic Church observes our forty-day journey toward Easter.
During Lent, we recall the time that Jesus spent fasting and praying in the desert and we remember the ultimate sacrifice that he made by dying on the cross. We reflect on our lives and repent for the ways in which we may not have fully lived out the call of our Baptism. We may honour the season by giving something up and/or making a special effort to do good works or acts of charity, and by focusing on prayer as a means of deepening our relationship with God.
Please join us in Our Gym at 1:15 p.m. for our Ash Wednesday Service and Distribution of Ashes
Celebrant: Father Peter Choi
We encourage students and staff to wear purple for Ash Wednesday. Otherwise it is a regular dress code day.
