Join us for a thoughtful daily homily on the purpose of our Lenten observances. As we journey through the fourth week of Lent, Fr. Samuel reminds us that these venerable exercises are not mere endurance tests, but tools to shape our hearts for the joy of Easter. Discover how our Lenten penances prepare us to 'welcome worthily the paschal mystery' and 'proclaim the praises of God's salvation.'

This homily encourages us to look beyond the temporary sacrifices and embrace the deeper meaning of Lent, transforming our hearts in anticipation of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Learn how to turn this Lenten season into a time of true spiritual growth and joyful anticipation.
