Second Sunday of Lent
“Fasting makes sense if it really chips away at our security, and as a
consequence, benefits someone else, if it helps us cultivate the style of the
good Samaritan who bent down to his brother in need and took care of him.”

WHAT EXACTLY IS LENT?
Lent is a forty-day period devoted to prayer, fasng, and almsgiving, which helps us focus on the mystery of
redempon. We are called to live joyfully because of the knowledge of God’s love. Yes, we fast and do
penance, but we do so in order to follow the path to joy.
Think of Lent as a musical prelude to the jubilant symphony of Easter, which lasts for fiy days beyond Easter
Sunday to Pentecost Sunday. During this me, we joyfully ancipate, then celebrate, the Resurrecon of Jesus, and, finally, the gi
of the Holy Spirit coming upon us.
I will sing praise with the spirit, but I will sing praise with the mind also. 1 Corinthians 14:15
WHERE DOES THE WORD LENT COME FROM?
The word Lent is from the Old English for spring. It refers to the springme of the soul, when the life of grace streams abundantly
into the hearts of believers.
Think of the soul as a garden: to enjoy beauful flowers in the summer, you have to plant seeds in spring—and pull some weeds
along the way.
The flowers appear on the earth; the me of singing has come. Song of Solomon 2:12
Peace & Blessings,

The second Sunday of Lent gives us the story of the Transfiguraon of Jesus. In his Transfiguraon, we see an ancipaon of the
glory of Jesus’ Resurrecon. We too are called to a transfiguraon. This Lenten season calls us to transform our lives. We seek to
change our lives for the beer, looking for ways we can be more faithful to Jesus and His Church. Life is full of ups and downs.
We must endure things if we want to experience the glory of what is to come. There cannot be a resurrecon without the
crucifixion, and that is what the season of Lent teaches us. I pray we can take the lesson of this gospel and apply it to our lives.
Let us pray for one another as we strive to transform our lives to be more like Christ. - Rev. Mr. Frank Lennie
