Lent, Time of Penance

“When you give alms, may your left hand not know what your right hand is doing.”

We began yesterday a new liturgical season, the season of Lent, through it God comes to us with His infinite mercy.

It is an opportune time to convert ourselves, to change our lives. It is time for reflection, for stopping to think of our journey with God and to verify where we have need of change, conversion. 
It is time of penance and of returning interiorly to God. The Lord waits for us with open arms!

Live well this time of grace for all of us.

Count on my prayers,

Your brother,
Monsignor Jonas Abib
